Still no better early internet saga than broadcast.com

@ryansingel @simonzerafa @jots Well, broadcast.com did get us one of the few internet moguls who isn’t a complete asshole.

Probably because it happened so fast he didn’t have time to become one.

@simonzerafa @jots What I find so interesting about the pets.com saga is that it’s Chewy’s business model…but before there was the infrastructure (warehouses and cheap delivery services) to make it viable. So it was a disaster.

I see Usenet. Usenet. I see Usenet."
