Co-Founder of Platzi Interested in Education + Livestreaming + Tech
Every case is different. Contacting a lawyer is the best advice to avoid getting distracted. You will anyway, but try to delegate as much as possible. Some countries have special quotas in the H1B, others have the NAFTA, some founders might do E2, others L1s, etc. And all the knowledge from achieving this is a good line to start a conversation with other international founders.
Silicon Valley is very open to risk-taking Mexicans willing to do the program in Mountain View.
Hi, Christian from Platzi here. We'll include an email/password login for future classes. Thanks for asking.
We're working on more options. Should we include github or an email/password login first?
Christian from Platzi. We're creating livestreamed classes with great companies doing stuff for devs, designers and makers. We've had Sam Altman talking about Startups and the guys from Gitlab. Today we have Mike McNeil teaching Sails.js. What else would you like to learn?
The Startup Class has amazing contents. Sam wanted to share new ideas from a recent post using our live streaming platform.
Hi, Christian from Platzi here. You're right, we'll update to include an email login option for future courses. Thanks for the feedback.

Facebook is doing video very good and very quiet. We're getting more views on a native videpost in facebook with less likes than from youtube with more subscribers. Part of this is because of the auto-play in the newsfeed.
Cool work with Mastering Modern Payments too. Just found out about your work and will check the repo for some customized reports.
20 videos already. Great work. 17/20.
Uber business is a good approach. But you'll get individual bills for every trip.
I hope Lyft gets you one consolidated bill a month for the company.
Thanks again for such an inspiring event. Sharing the playlist with some friends.
Thanks for the great Work Jessica. An amazing experience, great people and speakers. I fly from NY and found a bunch of people from around the world also traveling to California for the experience.
Wan to borrow my laptop for a while to post the written notes? ;) I'm in the back.
Good advice. Thanks.
Just emailed the story to my cofounder to scare him off a little.
Thanks for sharing.
Seems like the legal department of Apple is busy lately.
Great venue. And flights are cheaper than Austin too.
It was about time.
I wonder if they get more viewers than Redbull on Youtube.
I loved the program and the proposal.
As for the form, how about asking for HN users or githut accounts. They say more than a cover letter.
And was I the only one that didn't really got excited with the video? I rather get more leadership from the mentors when selling the idea.
Amazing to throw away more and more usability in their platform and still retain customers because their price scheme is cheap.
I guess their budget is not good enough to hire a good programer. I wonder if the CEO hire his nephew, the one with some frontpage/dreamweaver skills for the job.
He had the opportunity to remain silent for sure.
This remind me about SEO and Spain. Several spanish SEOs thought about this and started building landing pages to target future doodles. And this eventually killed links to search results in doodles in google.es ;) I'm not sure if the limit still aplies after Panda and if other country specific googles have the same regulations.
Good discovery. Let's see if they change the practice or if you get more webhosting companies to notice.
Competition is always welcomed in this market. Don't know how much users are going to use checks instead of a card, and the example only seems good in prices comparing agains authorize and paypal for small transactions, not big ones.
It's called netflix :P
And spotify might enter the movie business itself. http://techcrunch.com/2011/04/28/spotify-lands-major-studio-...
Every startup could use a co-founder like Tim Ferris to make a project become mainstream.
Don't get me wrong. I read some of his books and didn't change my life. But it made me think harder about how to promote and sell my ideas and myself.
I like the approach of your project. I love cooking as a hobby and had been researching tons of websites from restaurants, food and wine products. That market has a huge opportunity but we need to focus in the details, in inspiring those restaurants about the web and good practices.
Much has been written about flash websites and how chefs want to do a show in their website. And now with social media they're happier having likes and tweets than something handsome.
About the website, my main critic is about the landing page. It's missing more magic. And I know that this could be very generic, but Cilantro is something amazing, something magic that you add to your recipes when they need that extra ingredient to be perfect. You need to get that love for Cilantro and show it in the website.
In fact, all the contents above the fold don't captivate. But when you go down to the gray area, I like the design better. Even when that's something that compliments the website. You need amazing examples, you need metrics. Teach restaurants about web metrics, about a A/B. Unbounced is trying for the rest of us, somebody could start doing niche markets.
Great project!
