Episode notes

I doubt that when a plumber learns a new thing, he immediately goes to the web and shares in general. I just feel like that's one of the things I love about the web so much is that it is such a generous community. So, I do think if the web were only good for people who are building websites to share stuff, I think it would have failed. The fact that you can share anything on the web as well, kind of makes great stuff.

Jeremy Keith reveals how the web is neither good or bad, nor neutral, but an amplifier. He inspires us to not let the future be just something that happens to us, but rather something we make with the small things we do today. He encourages us to build software ethically with our users’ psychological vulnerabilities in mind. He motivates us to not build on rented land, but to publish using the superpower of our own URLs. He also shows us how looking to the past is just as important as looking to the future.
