Code Rush

posted by Lars Hundebøl # 07:06 PM
"Code Rush" is a documentary about the days before and after Netscape decided to open source their browser engine Mozilla (March 1998 to April 1999). The documentary was released in 2000 just before the beginning of the dot-com collapse; in that perspecive it is interesting to revisit the hype of the Internet, and see how startups like Netscape strugled to survive the beginning of the browser wars, and how it eventually ended up being bought by AOL. Check out the documentary at viddler.com: http://www.viddler.com/explore/coderush/videos/1/ An read the interview with the director of "Code Rush" at waxy.org: http://waxy.org/2008/09/code_rush_interview/
