Jason : Stewart, picking up on that, I didn’t become a Slack groupie until about three months ago when I was building some product for SaaStr, and then I got it, when I actually had to build software. In a kind of analogous way, everyone uses the Internet now, which wasn’t true certainly, when we started Flickr, in late 2003.

Here are my principles of enterprise software categories: Companies don’t create categories, market forces do. Before the SaaS era, enterprise software categories almost always converged because IT was all-powerful and saw its role as entropy minimization [7]. I’ll answer that after a quick aside on my views on categories.

The first time I worked with Steve was back in 2003. In essence, pilots are a really expensive backup to guard against autopilot software failure. This sparked an epiphany: If you can get software to perform a task, and only need people as backup when/if that software fails, you can do amazing things.
