Ten Long Years Ago Today

By -

It seems like a lifetime ago (particularly considering how miserable the past eight years have been…….) but precisely ten years ago today, I put together a little video of the iPhone launch here in my beloved Palo Alto. As you will soon hear, the audio was pretty bad (I was only 2.5 years into blogging and wasn’t the polished blogger you enjoy these days), but it’s a kick seeing how, even then, the iPhone was a huge deal. (You’ll also notice I had an honest-to-God job with a real office, and that office was right around the corner from a cool little company called Facebook). Anyway, check it out……….

Also, for you SlopeCharts fans, there’s a spiffy new feature that we’re rolling out which makes bars “glow” (well, they’re emphasized, at least) when you get close to them. The reason this is handy is to be super-clear precisely what bar the data line is representing. It’s just one of those little touches that I think add up to making it a great product. You PLUS users are also going to get an amazing new set of data soon in SlopeCharts.
