Three brand new CEOs who know all the tricks sit down for a wide ranging conversation about success in Silicon Valley.

I had a lot of fun during this interview but certainly wouldn't claim to know all the tricks to being a CEO (ha!). That topic has already been covered exceptionally well here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2396120

If anything I think the gist of our conversation was about learning from past mistakes and refusing to quit no matter what -- and as a result, learning to make better decisions over time. That and the notion that a good team will always trump a good idea.
