“Every company is a media company because every company publishes to its customers, its staff, its neighbors, its communities.  It doesn’t matter if a company makes diapers or steel girders, it must also be a media company and know how to use all the media technologies at its disposal.  While this has always been true to some extent, it is even more important today, because our media technologies have become so much more powerful.”

“In short: it’s time to think about the Internet instead of just letting it happen.”

The Internet is no topic like cellphones or videogame platforms or artificial intelligence; it’s a topic like education. It’s that big.

To work on the Internet, master some part of the Internet: engineering, software, computer science, communication theory; economics or business; literature or design. Don’t go to Internet School and master nothing. There are brilliant, admirable people at Internet institutes.
