The Twitch community loves watching video games, chatting, and broadcasting. The average viewer watches over an hour and a half of video each day. Over two-thirds of our logged-in users chat each day.

People who are using your product and putting up with all these issues, means that they are not actually the biggest problems.

People don't like silence, so they'll keep talking to fill the void.

Most startups are not just built for the person who is using them. When you do that, every now and then you get really lucky and... are representative of some huge class of people who all want the same thing you do... but very often that just turns into a side project that doesn't go anywhere.

The most common mistakes are showing people your product- don't show them your product, it's sort of like telling them bout a feature.

It's one of the most validating things you can do for a product is go out there and get them to commit to pay you up front.

A goal of Twitch is to be wherever gamers are, whether its on laptops and handheld devices or integrated into gaming consoles and software.
