“Grandpa” Andreessen Says We Live in Dang Exciting Times
7:58 pm : Starting now!
A slide of Andreessen’s 1996 Time Magazine cover. He says, “Two people have been on the cover of Time with bare feet. I’m one, the other’s Gandhi.”
Walt: When you think back to that period, what was in your mind about where things would go?
Andreessen: In ’93-’94, the conventional wisdom about the Internet was it was an errant toy for academics. The thought was we were going toward interactive TV. But in ’95-’96 people realized the Internet was a big deal. And there was a lot of potential, but in the ’90s we got ahead of ourselves.
“When I talk to entrepreneurs today, I feel like I was the grandfather in the Civil War.”
“Back in the day, there was dial-up access, TCP-IP, slow computers, small screens–“it was really so crude.”
8:03 pm : In the first issue of Wired, the Internet wasn’t mentioned till the last page, in Nicholas Negroponte’s column. His email address was Nicholas@Internet, Andreessen recalls.
Andreessen: “The exciting thing about where we are in the industry today is that these things are all happening.”
Walt: Apps versus the browser, Web apps versus local apps…as somebody who had a lot to do with the browser, how do you feel about that?
Andreessen: “It’s worth revisiting why the browser made sense 15-20 years ago. In those days (grandpa says) you had to actually install the application, and there was this nonstop mess of trying to keep everything up to date.”
The app model with its shopping process and updates over the air is a lot better experience. But I have an iPhone, Web OS phone, Microsoft phone, I’ve tried them all. And at the end of the week I have to click for updates.
In the long run, the browser model makes sense.
Kara: Does it already make sense?
Andreessen: All the good smartphones and tablets have great browsers on them. HTML5 is a big step forward for the browser. We’re seeing companies saying “I can have my cake and eat it too. I can build an HTML5 application and wrap it in an app.”
“As long as you’re connected all the time to an infinitely fast network, the browser is best for everything.”
8:10 pm : Kara: What’s the state of the browser market now?
