Private social Path to IPO CEO of zero income does not deny

Dave Morin initially found that he did not seem to be necessary to expose to too many people in his life, so he set out to create a private social network application based on mobile platforms. Yes, this is the Path, although he or it does not advocate exposing your life to most people, but it may want to issue public offering.

According to the message of The Next Web site, although not officially confirmed by the Path CEO Dave Morin, but CNBC Mary Catherine Wellons, head of social media at its Twitter accounts, so a tweets:

This can't help but Kiss, this young company is still zero income how to complete this great plan? But Dave Morin the wording is also very clever, "will eventually be listed" and did not give a timetable and the commercialization of company means it will take to complete.

Path is a slow company has been, the first version in the Path after 17 months, it ushered in the No. 2 million users, previously the rationale for private social networking has not been recognized, even by the media as "the Pan startups in Silicon Valley". Even now, despite the Path number of users had a lot, but with Facebook opening up different, on the Path of a private circle are not interoperable, only a fete "friends" did not appear in the buddy list in the Path. This private social networking concept, combined with the only mobile application, have some sense on the formation of Facebook users, despite the relatively small audiences, despite the strength difference between disparities, but this piece does not disappear "Blue Ocean" markets.

In Instagram was Facebook to 1 billion dollars acquisition Hou, was praise Path is "next 1 billion dollars level acquisition object", but Dave Morin has never been does not believes that Path eventually of home should is was acquisition, in Path launched near several months zhihou, Google had made to 100 million dollars plus based on financial performance of 25 million dollars acquisition then also is "baby" of Path, and Morin said refused to, even at and has " Godfather of Silicon Valley investment, "said Ron Conway of hostility. Visible commitment to its own development. It now appears that Path not only to "go" or to "go natural".

In any case, hope that the healthy development of the Path, it is like a bunch of our most intimate friends, like somewhere warm in my heart forever.
