ReadWrite: 10 Years of Spotting the Future
Ten years ago there was no iPhone, YouTube or Instagram. Google wasn't public yet. Facebook was barely an idea, and the dot com bust was still casting a long shadow over Silicon Valley. But there was the Internet, and Richard MacManus, founder of ReadWrite (formerly ReadWriteWeb) sensed a sea change coming. He wrote a simple post called The Read/Write Web about the tools that were empowering everyone to be a publisher.
And oh, what a ride it's been since then. The last 10 years have seen a decade of astounding innovation in media and Richard's post was one of the first to spot this trend.
To celebrate 10 years of chronicling the read/write Web and the technologies that power it, the editors at ReadWrite put together an impressive package of stories about 10 years of ReadWrite and technology– including a piece by the new ReadWrite editor-in-chief Owen Thomas about where we're headed.
