Companies in every industry need to assume that a software revolution is coming.
From Marc Andreessen
I know where I'm putting my money.
Aaron Sorkin was completely unable to understand the actual psychology of Mark or of Facebook. He can't conceive of a world where social status or getting laid or, for that matter, doing drugs, is not the most important thing.
In the next 10 years, I expect at least five billion people worldwide to own smartphones, giving every individual with such a phone instant access to the full power of the Internet, every moment of every day.
Any time you stand in line at the D.M.V. and look around, you're like, Oh, my God, I wish all these people were replaced by computer drivers.
Over two billion people now use the broadband Internet, up from perhaps 50 million a decade ago, when I was at Netscape, the company I co-founded.
Perhaps the single most dramatic example of this phenomenon of software eating a traditional business is the suicide of Borders and corresponding rise of Amazon.
We have never lived in a time with the opportunity to put a computer in the pocket of 5 billion people.
I don't think objectively we are in a tech bubble when tech stocks are at a 30 year low.
I need more raw experience. I've read and watched a lot of things, but I haven't done a lot of things.
