A friendly Pau García Milá in a First Tuesday about entrepreneurs and EyeOs

[sohanuzzaman56]

The last session of First Tuesday Barcelona took place yesterday, Wednesday 7th April. It is worth noting that this time, for the first time and exceptionally, it took place on a Wednesday and not on a Tuesday to avoid, as was clarified at the beginning, the coincidence with the Champions League match of Barça, which was played on Tuesday in the city of Barcelona.The session was led by journalist Carlos Blanco and featured the presence of the very young Pau Garcia-Milà who explained in a simple and fun way his experiences as a young entrepreneur and placed great emphasis on the birth and evolution of his professional project EyeOs.T

he young man interviewed, who did not want to define himself as an fusion data entrepreneur, confessed that he had already had entrepreneurial exploits since he was very young and that at school he was “famous” for projects that did not always end up working out.And like many of today's entrepreneurs, he started out this way until he stumbled upon success. He jokingly explained that the first project he created as a hobby was a cardboard table football that was not very popular with his classmates, and he went on to explain other larger projects.One of these projects was the creation of a blog where users could leave comments, with the limitation that the comment had to contain a minimum of 140 characters.

It seems that this blog was the inspiration of the creators of Twitter, who before embarking on the project alone, were interested in the design and functionality of the structure that Pau and his friends created and suggested that they collaborate together to create what is now known as this social network.Pau “regretted” not having trusted his creation enough, since he could now have a significant percentage of the company’s shares. He took advantage of that moment to clarify, in an anecdotal way, the fact that he appears on Twitter simply as “Pau”, and jokingly said: “At the time I registered, the username “Pau” was free.”As a key point of the event,

Pau clearly defined the concept and operation of EyeOs (as) a web-based operating system, which allows the end user to have a web desktop that makes it possible to access, from any type of device with an Internet connection (even if it has never been “touched”) and from anywhere in the world, all of their own information (files, photos, documents, music, etc.). This is what is called cloud computing. In addition, Pau explained that unlike what Google or Microsoft offer, for example,

EyeOs is free software, so the user can install it on their server and avoid having to give up their rights to someone else.Contó que eyeOs nació a partir de un día del año 2005 en que con Marc, su amigo de bachillerato, en Olesa de Montserrat Marc, decidieron poder tener disponibles en su casa los archivos en un servidor. Todo ello para no tener que volver a casa de Marc, que vivía en la otra punta del pueblo (lo que incluía tener que subir una pendiente bastante empinada) en aquellas ocasiones en las que se olvidaban el pen-drive en casa de Marc.
