• Rise of the Billionaires

    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Sun Jan 22 10:53:21 2023


    Just finished watching this series on TVNZ+ and really enjoyed it, for me it's all recent history but it provides some nice insights into what happened, and when, by whom etc.. worth a watch.

    "The origin stories and turbulent journeys of the tech titans who shape our world. We track how tech became the dominant industry in the world, from the dawn of the internet to the present day."

    Is it playing anywhere outside NZ?

    I lived through most of the changes. Probably nothing new in
    the documentary that most of us don't already know, ..or is
    there?
