Picture yourself as a 21 year old in UIUC's computer lab. It's 1992 and the internet is still for nerds. Life is simple - pizza, soda, & a dream to change the internet. How did a few students in the midwest revolutionize the web? https://tbp.tech/netscape-culture

Will never forget being a 20 yo at UIUC computer lab, stumbling hungover and half-stoned into a lecture after hours by Aaron Swartz At one point he asked "What's the most important thing you could be working on right now? Why aren't you working on that **right now**?" Think about it often. His passion was contagious
