Marina, just wanted to let you know that you are great. You are inspiring so many young people and let us believe that everything is possible. Looking forward for your success!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😃
I liked that presentation a lot!! It really captured the "essence" of life in Silicon Valley. It also really showed me why the cream of the young "internet entrepreneur" crop flock to Silicon Valley. You made it clear that Silicon Valley resources enable an internet company to reach its potential in a way that perhaps no other place can. That in and of itself is extremely important to know.
Thank you Marina. I have big dream. I don't know how to start my own bisuness and now everyday I sit on a chair before a desk for studying to go to university in korea, I don't like sitting on chair all day though haha. But I'm sure I'll get to there for running my own startup. you've given me strong inspiration. thanks
Today I found out your channel on youtube and I'll start to use it to practice my listening, I don't know why, but the non-native accent is easier for me understand, hugs from Brazil
I live in Redwood City, just north of Google at about 10 miles or so. I went to Google to complain about something regarding my Google site. I arrived there on one afternoon, a few years ago. I drove my car in through a gate, with no security guards, which was amazing. I went to the main building with some women greeters at the desk. What got me was they had no personnel badges, with no names, what was that about? I guess they don't want anyone to know who I was talking to when I arrived at that campus! Another thing I noticed, all the buildings there are very close together, no large buildings! Two security guards came in and asked me how I got in and for what reason I was there. I said I was there to complain about something regarding the Google website. They told me it wasn't the place to go but to complain on the Google website. It was all cordial.
As a native of the SF Bay Area, I have to say that even now, I'm still not used to people referring to anything North-of (and including) San Mateo County as "Silicon Valley". I have no idea when that officially became the term to describe our region. HAH! I remember when there was some sort of un-scientific poll done more than a decade ago, asking SF Bay Area residents if our area/region should be called the "San Jose Bay Area", given that San Jose had a higher population (population density?) compared to San Francisco, and far more high-tech businesses at the time (before all the social media and Web 2.0 stuff came about)........ think Internet Explorer 2.0 and Netscape Navigator 2.0. There was no Firefox...... there was no Google Chrome....... heck....... there was no Google yet either! And Apple's logo was still in rainbow colors! hahahah!
JanSolo Immigrants calling SF "Frisco"? Hmmm.....I thought we So Cal people call it "Frisco" just to piss you idiots off. Step in any homeless crap today? Step in any piss? When are gonna get rid of Pelosi? Naw....you'll just keep voting for her because she is just as insane as her constituents. Too bad abortion wasn't legal when she was born.
I liked very much your observation about Silicon Valley, as you said; "Here nobody shows off their money their wealth. Showing of their impact". We should do this every where to make our life easy. Simple is the best.
Hmmm.....how did Silicon Valley get started? Your history is a little bit off and not sure if you'll like the answer. It got started because of the Cold War. The area had a lot of defense contractors working on systems to destroy Russia. You see ICBM's and rockets do not like vacuum tubes so much (lots of vibrations in rockets) and the need to develop solid state to deal with a number of things (lower use of power, smaller designs, etc.) led to develop what is known today as "chips" or IC's (integrated circuits) in the 1960's. Smaller, lighter, lower use of power than vacuum tubes and mechanical relays made for better ICBM, rocket design, and guidance systems. They were solely developed for this, for the US Military. It wasn't until the late 1970's that a commercial use was found for them, video games, radios, calculators. That led to larger production of IC's, making them cheaper as the gaming and other industry needed them. That led to IC's getting smaller, cramming more transistors and great computing capacity. Then, personal computers because IC's had even greater computing capacity which a computer needs. Gates, Jobs (Silicon Valley brats) and others saw potential in PC's. Silicon Valley was born there because US Defense contractors were located there (also UC Berkeley/Livermore Labs and other defense industries). A little bit of irony isn't it, a Russian finds opportunity in a place that started from wanting to bomb Russia out of existence?
Respectfully, This is part of the problem that’s contributing to the complete and utter gentrification Of not only San Jose but the Bay Area. “Start ups” like these along with the tech giants are pricing people out of their houses. Evictions are at an all time record high and the rents have gone up 344%. Why don’t you do a video on how start ups and the tech Indus are artificially inflating the housing market and creating an entire army of the homeless? I can’t believe how incredibly tone deaf this video is to what’s going on in the bay area and the housing crisis. You’re right about one thing, your idea may change the world but for many residents of San Jose and the Bay Area, not necessarily for the better
Wow! Your speech at demo day was exciting, but you sound more natural and closer when you speak with a camera in front of you. Keep it going ;) Maybe one day we can meet in California. Sorry for my bad English! I have just started a better life with this language. You can correct my writing and, yes, I know it's an old video but I just found it today
I grew up in Sunnyvale, and I always thought the "Silicon Valley" referred to just the Santa Clara Valley in the South Bay. The San Francisco Bay Area covered everything such as the North Bay, the Peninsula, East Bay and of course, the Santa Clara Valley and beyond. Have I understood incorrectly all my life?
Wow, you're so beautiful. I am from Brazil and I am learning English, I have known your channel and it is helping me improve my listening and my studies. thank you so much!
for me, when people are smiling it seems like everything is going to be OK and even more when people are sining. You are so sunny! Keep it up! Keep it up!
Silicon Valley didn't become a tech hub because of HP. It became a tech hub because of steady military investment in the valley pre-1970. The investment brought engineering jobs to the area and some of those engineers went on to found private tech companies which cemented the tech-ecosystem.
I fear giving public presentations. Why do I feel heartbroken whenever I see a person I like giving public presentations ? It feels like I hardly know them and they have become so different. I am 27 and I suck in this area, its literally killing my professional life, I am so unconfident at work.
russians/bulgarians usually misuse articles in english since there isn't any notion of this concept in the Russian Language (the/it/a... doesn't exist; they just say "i like horse" or "this is beautiful house"). Hence why it is common for them to either overuse it when speaking English if they are doing an effort or underuse-it, depending on the context and level of english obviously. In any case, it isn't really a big deal. I also spotted it out when listening 2min of the video😂 good man
Yes silicon valley is mostly tech they don't have overpopulation problem unlike places with diversified economy, if I get a green card maybe I can work as an engineer for your startup for your advertised entry-level salary 120k/year
Maria I really admire you...you are so successful. I think my own life have been very difficult because of I didn't now what to do many years. Now I'm kind of person who want to be an international person. I think my way will be interesting, I now what I want when I'm looking to your videos.
silicon valley was not known as silicon valley untill after 1972 and it was from a magazine report (Metro) with title "Silicon Valley" it was about the companies in that era.
I like a lot what you said about eductaion : 9 years compared to 2 weeks. I think actually education is archaic in most aspects and many groups continue to repeat old schemas of educaion despite resultz. Im in the instance I have to improve my English.
Lived there for 12 yrs. Last straw was a one bedroom condo in Foster City went for 1.2 million. It's also a socialist area. Had to pay for a friend's 2 hour tow that cost... $950.00. If you wait a day it's $250.00 extra per day. Yeah, totally unreal, but San Francisco is crazy and they hate cars. Anyone don't believe the cost, I yelp that stupid company the city gave the contract to. Bay Area believe it or not, is the most uptight narrow minded place in the US.
Silicon is used to produce most semiconductor devices. Transistors, I.C.'s and Microprocessors were all made there and thus it became the Silicon Valley.
It got that name in 1971 but had been hub of vacuum tube, radio tube, and ocean-spanning radio communications since the early 20th Century. SF Bay's protected port facilities were inviting to the world shipping industry and shipboard radio communications became important a hundred years ago. SF Bay was the early focus of the west coast radio technology industry. Stanford had a role in the spawning of proto-Silicon Valley long before solid-state tech took hold.
bingofoothill Yeah cause in 1971 everything was made from silicon, germanium was used before but silicon has better temperature charactersitics so silicon wad the main element used. Thus the naming 'Silicon' valley.
I don't this the title corresponds to the video context. I didn't understand why she moved to silicon valley, maybe I was skipping to much, as it looks a lot like a overview of the silicon valley.
you should have gone to Westfield Shopping Center at SF, I was there like 8 years ago and it was amazing had fun, I don't live in the USA, just went there for business
I hate Silicon Valley. The whole places is a giant suburb with shitty housing, terrible traffic, and Manhattan price tags. No thanks. Literally anywhere else in the U.S. is better for living.
the most beautiful english teacher ever!
Shhh! Don't say these things about your teacher otherwise you will get beaten by her if she finds out.
As a Chinese girl who also has a start-up dream (working on it everyday), this is super inspiring! Thank you.
Best of luck✌🏻mam.
Also i am working for it and im from India.
小姊姊加油💪
加油哦，ты молодец !
我也是。小姐姐现在做得怎么样了？
Working for a big company or running a startup? Choose one!
linguamarina Running a Start up. Take your decision in the favour of company as a boss.
linguamarina running a startup definitely
Working for a big company for a while, then startup a new company.
what would you do differently if you had to start from zero all over again?...
Working for a startup
Marina, just wanted to let you know that you are great. You are inspiring so many young people and let us believe that everything is possible.
Looking forward for your success!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😃
Silicon Valley may be the best place for tech startups but it is by no means the best place to make a start up. Location doesn't matter.
I loved that you used the silicon valley intro music ❤
That's by Tobacco from Black Moth Super Rainbow.

Are you gonna work at Hooli?
haha they actually have a company called Pied Piper here

Really? You definitely should take a photo or something for Pied Piper.
Please apply for a job at Hooli so you can help me hack in my code at Hoolicon!

No, Silicon Valley is not "something that goes from San Francisco down to San Jose," smh... It's all in Santa Clara County.
As a native of the SF Bay Area, I have to say that even now, I'm still not used to people referring to anything North-of (and including) San Mateo County as "Silicon Valley". I have no idea when that officially became the term to describe our region. HAH!

There was no Firefox...... there was no Google Chrome....... heck....... there was no Google yet either! And Apple's logo was still in rainbow colors! hahahah!
yeah I am also pretty sure than SF isn't counted as a part of Silicon Valley - but I that's going into details.
Only people who are not from the Bay Area would ever call San Francisco "Silicon Valley". They're probably the same people who call SF "Frisco".
JanSolo Immigrants calling SF "Frisco"? Hmmm.....I thought we So Cal people call it "Frisco" just to piss you idiots off. Step in any homeless crap today? Step in any piss? When are gonna get rid of Pelosi? Naw....you'll just keep voting for her because she is just as insane as her constituents. Too bad abortion wasn't legal when she was born.
sw8741 doesn't LA have a worse homeless problem than SF? I see you're very emotional.
Don't get used to it, because it isn't. Silicon Valley = Santa Clara Valley = South Bay.
i noticed one thing , you are honest & honest with yourself that makes you succesful
I love your speaking, I can easily understand everything :)
You're trying to show us what silicon valley looks like but cannot seem to get your face out of the camera frame.
Andres Leon I'm not. But then Again I'm a cat. So I guess your right.
404 - NO CHILL FOUND
J.Palafox I know , and its the best view 😍
i have 2 startups. Aviato ( bought by Delta Airlines ) and Pied Piper a popular compression application.
LeoDahVee ... I use Aviator all the time, it's awesome.
Spoiler: You lost your apartment & you're officially dead
I like this introduction much better.
I never ever see Marina without smile 😃😊☺️
We love you
Thanks for making informative videos..

Most beautiful and thanks for teaching
Coffee with YOUU! OMG So supportive!!
I love it out there... it's just so incredibly sunny and happy feeling...
Marina,is there a possibility to watch your full 500 startups's speech?
Valentin Berg yes it would be amazing, please Marina share with us your conference :D
Here: th-cam.com/video/dGfttuIsTq4/w-d-xo.html
Your story is inspiring!

Many people who live there have a 40 year mortgage and never pay it off.
You are outstanding teacher
Hello from 2020. Despite Covid, Uber is now $10 for the shortest trip
please make a detailed video on 5oo start ups, like how it all started , fees . etc : D thank you !

Wow! Your speech at demo day was exciting, but you sound more natural and closer when you speak with a camera in front of you. Keep it going ;) Maybe one day we can meet in California. Sorry for my bad English! I have just started a better life with this language. You can correct my writing and, yes, I know it's an old video but I just found it today
Thanks Marina! I need more of this!! 😉
Please make a video about daily expenditures of a typical US student..Thanks!!
you're a very bright person and will surely go far! good luck

The San Francisco Bay Area covered everything such as the North Bay, the Peninsula, East Bay and of course, the Santa Clara Valley and beyond. Have I understood incorrectly all my life?
what about Cupertino?
I grew up there too. Always considered Silicon Valley south of Redwood City to San Jose.
Exactly, born and raised here (1968). The Valley always referred to the actual "Santa Clara Valley" not SF or the north/mid Peninsula.
Wow, you're so beautiful. I am from Brazil and I am learning English, I have known your channel and it is helping me improve my listening and my studies. thank you so much!
I think that your speaking is attractive and it makes staying in minds all the people because when I listen I like it by my feeling
for me, when people are smiling it seems like everything is going to be OK and even more when people are sining. You are so sunny! Keep it up!
Keep it up!
Thank you Marina
Native or not your videos is improving my listening...... thank you a lot
Great video! Thanks for sharing with us
LinguaTrip is a pretty good idea. Goodluck!
Thanks for the video keep up!!
"Changed the world"? You probably wanted to say "Making the world the better place" :D
Wow, amazing girl!!! wish someday I can work at Silicon Valley :)
marina san Francisco is not apart of silicon vally

Hi Marina! You are an amazing lady! Please uploud full 500 startups's speech
Why does she keep saying "the silicon valley"

@@lucasmateu Oh it's also a big problem for many Chinese people when they speak English 😂
You enspire people to feel the life! I wish your plans will have been done in shortest time!
Yes silicon valley is mostly tech they don't have overpopulation problem unlike places with diversified economy, if I get a green card maybe I can work as an engineer for your startup for your advertised entry-level salary 120k/year
Good video. Marina
Sf is not silicon valley. Its the south bay, and san jose is the largest city within silicon valley.
This one is amazing!
Just love your videos
What was your English level when you started to live in the family?
cool... I been there... Looking forward to see guys to present my new bigger concept sooner over there
Pretty good, showing Stanford campus would be good as well!
I Love You, Marina!
If I want to start a cookies and cream biscuits company, is silicon valley gonna accept me?

Your sunglasse was awesome 😎😎
How do you do that? Making everything simple and that refreshing smile you have , is
everybody is moving here now because of all the tech jobs, its like the place to be. the new hollywood but in the tech industry

Sorry to nitpick, but SF is not in Silicon Valley. South Bay = Silicon (Santa Clara) Valley.
You make it look super fun.. are there alot of people drive Uber in Silicon Valley.?
M in love 😍 you are amazing
I'm jealous of her bf or future bf . She is beautiful , smart , fanny , and has beautiful singing voice 😍
Yes, talk to me in sunglasses, that's respectful.
I am spanish and love tech, so I think is the best place for a applelover like me.
Love the music-theme song of SILICON VALLEY
Please don't throw Google's name randomly. It's not a child's play to get a job at Google, atleast definitely not at their headquarter.
You inspire me!
Uau !! What a video !! Amazing I loved it .. take my like !! My dream is know asap Silicon Valley ... thanks for share it with us !!
i'll move to silicon valley,just to see you.....
I only saw the thumbnail and popped over to thumb this down, we have ads on videos and now we get videos that look like ads.. Do your thing though
I hate Silicon Valley. The whole places is a giant suburb with shitty housing, terrible traffic, and Manhattan price tags. No thanks. Literally anywhere else in the U.S. is better for living.
