@jeff_jordan @neighborstorage 2/ I've had a long string of personal experiences with "right idea, wrong time"
@jeff_jordan @neighborstorage 3/ Tried at GO Corporation to build an iPhone (we called them "personal communicators") in 1992
@jeff_jordan @neighborstorage 4/ Tried at Oracle to build Netflix in 1994 (anyone remember the "information superhighway?") competing against SGI
@jeff_jordan @neighborstorage 5/ Tried at Respond.com to build Thumbtack++ (++ because we offered both products & services) in 1999
@jeff_jordan @neighborstorage 6/ Tried at Loucloud to build AWS (kids, this was before hypervisors were for data centers) in 2001
@jeff_jordan @neighborstorage @bhorowitz 8/ Hey, in my defense I've been at a16z since 2009. Better late than never, amirite? 😂
