People enjoy the interaction on the Internet, and the feeling of belonging to a group that does something interesting: that's how some software projects are born.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you want to do interesting software, you have to have a bunch of people do it, because the amount of software that one person can do isn't that interesting.
One of the wonderful things about Internet is it's like a salon. It brings people together from different intellectual walks of life.
The interesting thing about the Internet is that it has created a kind of alternative circle of friends for people.
The internet is a wild land with its own games, languages and gestures through which we are starting to share common feelings.
People notice it and they help you participate and see your work included in this project and when we ship our browser, you and millions of other people get to see the fruits of your efforts.
It gives you great pleasure to know that millions of developers, day to day, make their living using the software that you created.
I never said I enjoy anything about using the Internet. I enjoy helping the entrepreneurs who are building this thing that I don't necessarily like or use.
For most people, using the Internet broadens their sense of who 'we' is and actually ends up leaving us in a place of greater compassion and understanding. It leaves us more connected to a larger group of people and more at one with a lot more people in our community.
I not only work online through my various projects, but I am an avid user of online technologies to connect and engage with friends as well.
In software, it's easy to understand what people want, and it's hard to build. Internet stuff is super easy to build, but it's hard to know what people want.
