The archive link should work?
The OP was edited. I don’t think the archive link was originally there.
I've been seeing Mike McCue and his projects around a lot, and listening to him quite a bit in [email protected], but I never really understood how he had the resources to do all his stuff.
He started Paper Software to make it possible to visually display 3-D information in web browsers and then sold the company to Netscape for $20 million in 1996.
In 1999 he co-founded Tellme Networks, a pioneering effort to create what had been described as a “voice browser” and make it possible to receive internet information via the phone. That company was sold to Microsoft in 2007 for a rumored $800 million.
Gosh.
