Product Design
- Imagine you are the Facebook newsfeed PM. In your research, you have found that users crave validation. That is, when Facebook users write a new post or perhaps share a photo or video, they want someone to click Facebook's "like" button. They feel empty when their friends do not "like" it. How would you solve this?
- Brainstorm some app ideas using a mood API. A mood API is an API that has sensors that can learn about your mood.
Analytics
- Estimate how much it costs to run Gmail per user, per year.
- How much storage space do you need for Google Maps?
- Estimate Facebook's ad revenue.
Metrics
- What are the top metrics you would track for a two-sided marketplace?
