Long before Airbnb persuaded strangers to sleep in one another's homes and became a

an email. Joe Gebbia sent his roommate, Brian Chesky, an idea: What if they made a
designer's bed and breakfast, complete with a sleeping mat and breakfast? It was a way to
"make a few bucks." Almost nine years later that idea is worth $25 billion. They created a
simple site, airbedandbreakfast.com, and bought three air mattresses. The duo had met at
college at the Rhode Island School of Design, so they thought acting as tour guides to
designers would be a fun way to make money. By 2011, four years after the first air
mattress guests, Airbnb was already in 89 countries and had hit 1 million nights booked on
the platform. It also finally won the break-out mobile app award at SXSW - despite having
