Mixup: Balaji Gives His TED Talk At YC’s Startup School
In a very honest tweet, Balaji Srinivasan, who had just gotten off stage at YC’s Startup school after giving a phenomenal talk, said “OMG. I brought the TED Deck”. Some viewers had rated the talk as excellent, but for the majority of the audience, it was clear that he had confused the two gatherings. “The Larry Page quote nailed it. That’s when I knew he had it mixed up. I sure hope he publishes the material he prepared for us” a 20 year old from YC’s current batch told SVChronicle.
Meantime, Robert Scoble had already tweeted that he would die twice to see Balaji’s dream come true, and PandoDaily’s Sarah Lacy has invited Balaji to next month’s PandoMonthly since Balaji used a picture from her Marc Andreessen interview during his talk.
