Munish Gandhi’s Post

"I remember the first Webcam. So the first streaming video was a coffee pot and it was literally a coffee pot. A guy had rigged up a camera, with a coffee pot down the hall in a CS department somewhere. So that he can see when the coffee pot was empty - to go refill it. It was pure utility for him.  And then he put the coffee pot online - it was the first webcam. So we all just sat for a week and watched the coffee pot. " - Marc Andreessen on "Building Netscape & the Birth of the Browser" So many fun stories on the development of the early Internet from a16z “The Ben & Marc Show” podcast. https://lnkd.in/gX6uphGR Goes on to prove that early technology adopters are as much driven by utility as by the coolness factor. For any CS leaders and CSMs exploring how to leverage GenAI today to improve efficiency and effectiveness, explore Statisfy (www.statisfy.com) or DM me - I would love to show you what we are building.
