We spoke to Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky after his talk onstage at the GigaOM Roadmap conference — during the talk Chesky spoke about many possible avenues for the company’s expansion but didn’t commit himself to any one path. Instead Chesky held that what users want is one of the most important factors in deciding where the company focused their efforts. For example, two months ago a critical mass people wanted to stay in Airbnbs for longer than a week, according to Chesky, so the company launched ‘Sublets.’ Right now the company has about 300 boats, and Chesky says he’s looking into that as a space. “We look to our community and try to figure out what’s already popular there for cues as to where to go next,” he said.
