Collision 2015 - Stan Chudnovsky of Facebook with JP Mangalindan of Mashable
summary
Joined product pivots into messaging aim to make Messenger both a fast core utility and an expressive platform: voice calling claims 10% of internet voice traffic, video calling launches in 18 markets and hits 1 million video calls in 48 hours, P2P payments are a small test group (still very limited), and opening Messenger as a developer platform and stickers drives growth from under 200M to over 600M MAUs in a year. A 100-person team iterates fast and says Messenger will enable payments but not become a payments company.
