Hi, I'm one of the founders of Platzi. We're really excited to have Sam teaching a class on our platform. It's really different to learn with live classes instead of just videos.

We've been doing this in spanish for a couple of years and this is first english class. Please let us know if you have questions / suggestions or a terrible bug we missed.

It is never cool to request sign in via Twitter and reserve the right to post tweets yourself on someone else's account.

Never

[freddier → rmason]

Oops, we'll fix it right now.

Edit: And it's fixed rmason :)

[rmason → freddier]

Appreciate the fast response. Apparently those down voting me have never had someone sending spam from their Twitter account and learned the hard lesson you can't trust everyone.

I still think you did the right thing to remove it.

I'm a bit confused about the sign up. Do you just login at 1pm PT and everyone (lol) gets in?

[freddier → go1979]

Go here logged in: https://courses.platzi.com/classes/startup-class/

Do you see the countdown?

[dfuego → freddier]

Great initiative. Is it going to be possible to ask questions in real time?

[freddier → dfuego]

Yeah. Ranked questions, ranked notes, real-time files and links. Hope to see you there :)

Typo on "How to operate, raise, talk to investors and creat a great company." Please fix.

Also ...not cool on the Front Page of a high visibility event.

[freddier → suprgeek]

And it's fixed. Thanks a lot suprgeek.

[santiagogo → freddier]

otros mini-typos: published, is awesome.

"All our classes are recorded and plublished. But the live experience it's awesome."

[freddier → santiagogo]

That one took a while, but I think it's fixed now. What do you think?

[boomzilla]

What start up did Sam Altman found and how did it go?

[icpmacdo → boomzilla]

Loopt, the first location sharing mobile app. I think the exit was around 40+ million is I remember correctly.

Here's more about it. http://venturebeat.com/2012/03/09/loopt-dau/

[mkramlich → boomzilla]

I just googled "Sam Altman" and among the top few links was the Wikipedia article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Altman

I then read that and it answered your question plus extra. i recommend the same technique for most other topics. Very fast, self-serve, great for FAQ-prone facts.

Alternatively, today at 2pm and with much more content: the Female Founders Conference

Also it would be nice to see the class in different timezones. I don't like calculating in my head and being wrong which happens more often. seems good though. thanks
