Gabriel: So DuckDuckGo is a general search engine, just like Google, and you can switch to it today, and really never look back. Tell me a little bit about who your target customers are and what are the pain-points that you are trying to solve for them? I think it's a great one! Okay, let's start by giving our listeners a better understanding of DuckDuckGo. Gabriel: Ooh! So I just came across a relatively new one that really resonates with me, and it is by Charlie Munger, who is, you know, a financial wizard in his own right, but known as Warren Buffett's right-hand man, and Munger goes, “I never allow myself to have an opinion on anything that I don't know the other side's argument better than they do,” and it really resonates with me because it turns out like corporate strategy and thinking about what you're doing with your business and it's all about making strategic arguments and I see a lot of people get caught up in optimism about their arguments, but not really understanding the other side, and so I think it's important to understand all sides of the issue. Omer: Now, we like to kick things off with a success quote, to better understand what drives and motivates our guests. Gabriel: There is lot of physical altercations. Omer: I have a boy and a girl, so I kind of feel like we have a little bit more balance in that. Omer: 2 boys, wow! That's going to keep you busy. Gabriel: Well, I have a 3 and a 5-year-old, both boys and I am basically a dad! That's what I am doing. Omer: Before we talk about DuckDuckGo, tell our audience a little bit about yourself. He is also an angel investor and co-author of “Traction – A Startup Guide To Getting Customers.” Gabriel has been featured on CBS, Fox, The Guardian, The Washington Post and more.
