The New New Thing: A Silicon Valley Story by Michael Lewis

1.0

I'm not sure why I finished this book. The writing was good, but I hated Jim Clarke towards the end. He just seemed like a typical entitled, money driven, full of himself, out-of-touch-with reality founder from Silicon Valley.

If your only value is money, then this story is an inspiration. But other than that, I had no regard for Jim's careless character.

If anything, it was a good history lesson for me because I was born in the '90's and had never heard of his companies. But they were critical to formation of the internet.
