Match Kapor founded Foxmarks (in 2006)? Still mention of the search service here, but I don't see it on the site....

Reading this now and really enjoying it! It's basically the story of the Chandler project (Mitch Kapop, Andy Hertzfeld, et. al.). Reminds me of Soul of a New Machine. I like that there is a lot of context ranging from the Memex, Doug Englebart, Lotus Agenda, Mythical Man Month.
The theme of the book is trying to understand why software is "hard" and project schedules can be so difficult to predict.

The flexibility of graph databases better support agile development and schema evolution.

2 FaversViewed: 13 TimesQuoted: I have a picture in my head of what the average entrepreneur is like. I’d guess pretty young (think Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.) living the red beans and rice lifestyle and working 80+ hours a week and sleeping under their desk. On some parts, I’m probably right — but on many, I’m flat-out wrong.
