Kara Swisher is a reporter that has covered tech for over 25 years maybe over 30 years. This is her book about that time. Lots of interesting thoughts and reflections about companies and personalities in tech during this time. Steve Jobs gets a lot of mentions and also Elon Musk as well. Interesting that she basically just reported and did shows/conferences and pod casts during this time--she & her reporting partner Walt Mossberg did not cash in bigtime by joining one of the hot techs as a communication type person. Sounds like she still has done very well for herself but never wanted to try for the crazy cash in tech is admirable. Interesting reading. I first heard Kara on CNN and whenever I see her on at night I try to stay and listen to her thoughts on the issues, usually very insightful and book just reinforced a lot of that. Glad that I read it.
There are 15 WL for this book on PBS but no hurry at this point to mail off.
