"Opportunities are like buses, there’s always another one coming.” -Richard Branson Be ready to catch the next bus.  This episode is a reminder that failing is necessary in order to succeed.

Today's story begins with a barrage of texts and emails, and I describe my mindset shortly after a new app called Instagram sold to Facebook for $1B, crushing Best Camera's trajectory.
