This was really evident the last time I drove up into San Francisco and noticed how bland all of the tech billboards were. Nothing interesting or novel…just a lot of enterprise SaaS products. Looked a lot different 15 years ago.
15 years ago? In 2008, the year of the Great Recession? Are you certain?..
Yes. That's when I moved out to California. The tech industry looked and felt a lot different then than it does now. Recession or not.
