Absolute homerun, Robert. What an epic and inspiring interview. You can almost see and feel the creative energy emanating from Mr. Andreesen. History will write that he was one of the most important people ever in the Technology field.
Outstanding interview. Marc makes two particularly powerful points in my opinion: 1) the idea that technology can be used to 'liquify' markets. 2) Challenging the concept of running a business as 'a people-business' vs. an 'information-business'. Also, if I were to count the number of times Marc uses the term 'what if', it would be off the charts. You can tell he is always thinking about 'what could be possible'. Really insightful. Robert - IMHO, one of you best interviews.
One of your better interviews! I love thinking about a time in the future when things that now seem disruptive, scary, or hidden are common place and tech has evolved us. It's a hopeful vision.
This is brilliant! .. for so many reasons but the critical point being that you've finally got talking about the "Freaky Line" .. finally got the point out that the disruption is natural .. that its ok to have your life Public .. that its so much easier to have that global pervasive transparency. Lets just hope millions see this. I love this guy .. thanks for interviewing him Robert ;)
So glad he mentioned "health informatics" as an important area to watch for future developments. Glad too that Andreessen's company is considering adding this area to their portfolio. We need more investment on this.
When are they going to clone Marc Andreessen? A humble man that seems to have all his sensors in tune with creating the future! Great interview! I am happy to hear him mention "Toronto" in this interview.
Thanks for sharing this, John, it's a topic I have deep interest in exploring and have been thinking about these "meta worlds" for 10+ years. As a former neuro guy, I see that that's exactly how the brain creates what we see as "the world", but it's really a model of it. I'm also very interested (for much the same reason) in the whole notion of context (connections are context) and wrote about it a little in a contextual medicine piece: www.hl7standards.com/blog/2013/03/22/rise-of-contextual-medicine/ but it's also how our company, Vivaphi, envisions the understanding marketplaces. "Networks are the new conpanies"
Robert great interview! Want to point out that having been inside brick and mortar Fortune 500 cos for years that they are no where close as a group to knowing everything about their businesses. There's still many companies just trying to connect all their systems, install SAP
Great interview Robert of Marc! Bravo! (Watch out Charlie Rose!) We have had many of these sensors in medical, military, and space settings. It has taken time for the transition. As Marc states its more evolutionary (like the 1972 Internet that didn't grow until Netscape in 90s open it up for masses) Love the "Liquidfying of markets" concepts. @mikegordonryan
One of these days, a vast number of people would want to have a personalized privacy SW to manage what information to share to public, how it perceived and what to keep privately. as there are so many data points for a person to manage.
Great discussion, as usual. A contextual web is something I've focused on for the past few years, since I believe it is the natural evolution of the web. We recently launched cliqie.com (after the word "cliquey") to help you discover groups of friends nearby that share your interests and passions. Our mission is to build the world's most extensive interest graph and pioneer the passion graph. This will enable interesting possibilities for us to serve as a platform for the contextual web.

Robert I think this is one of your best interviews ever!
Thank you, you are the only person we love and that has increased our understanding of technology

Great interview and yet another orb or 2 of information have been added to my brain. Thanks Scoble.

Thank you John Nosta

Wonderful interview! Thank you for doing it Robert. Very fascinating...makes me so excited about the future of everything :-)
