That's really been my passion: to communicate to a broad audience why the technology matters for you.

I don't have any personal challenges about throwing away the past. If you're not changing, you're giving others a chance to catch up.

Execution really shapes whether your company takes off or not. A lot of people start out with an exciting thing and they want to take over the world, but really the people who do take over the world have a good plan of how to get there and the steps along the way.

I don't have a TV or watch movies. I don't like to be broadcast to, I want to participate.
