Beware the folly of the Dropbox comment

• kristopolous 5y ago
  For the background, that was way back in the day where someone looking at things through only their own use case and concluding the just announced dropbox was a useless product (to them). A very similar comment was famously made on slashdot about the "just released" ipod in 2001, "No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame." I was thinking about both famous dismissals as I was typing my first comment. Still thought it was worth surfacing some arcane knowledge some may find useful.
