Marc Andreessen Interview

Charlie Rose interviewed Marc Andreessen last night (February 19th). Pretty fascinating conversation that covered topics including his views on Facebook, social networking and his current work at Ning, as well as the future of mobile web. He also spoke passionately and convincingly about what newspapers need to do. If you want an insight into where the internet is going, this is a great interview. Marc studied at The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA), and is credited with creating Mosaic, the first graphical Web browser, the foundation upon which Microsoft Internet Explorer is based. Marc was also a founder of Netscape.
