There is simply a lower signal to noise ratio in regards to innovation. And yes, while there is a lot of noisy low-innovation internet companies, there are still more strong innovators now than there were 10 or 20 years ago. There is a low barrier to entry to the tech industry, and with that a great spectrum of the level of impact they make, and yet the opportunity and ease of access to an audience is greater than ever before. Nothing like this has ever been able to happen. Innovation is continuing at an exponential rate, and I would hope Justin Fox would realize this as he books a last minute hotel via mobile app, rekindles a long lost friendship from school, and slips his tiny 90s-grade supercomputer into his pocket. All while selling his hobby romance novelas on his web marketed e-commerce site.
