Internet History, Netscape, Dot Com, Code Rush

Xah Lee, 2011-01-31

A documentary film “Code Rush”, on Netscape 1998. Ahh… the dot com, nostalgia!

This is the first time i see Jamie Zawinski. Remember, he's famous for being blamed for the Emacs/XEmacs schism. (See: GNU Emacs and Xemacs Schism, by Ben Wing ◇ My Experience of Emacs vs XEmacs.) He's also well-known as a coder who developed serious RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury). (See: Celebrity Programers with RSI)

For some dot com nostalgia, see:
