I agree 100% on airbnb. I disagree completely on uber. Uber is safer, better and fairer than taxis. The strategy of growing it quickly is aggressive and clearly short term but the value of having uber in a community where driving is the only option makes drinking out so much safer. Girls getting rides alone are protected by verifying drivers, having so much more data for the entire trip and transaction. They clearly were able to gain market share with vc backing, but I will 100% take an uber over a taxi every day.
