Case Study

Blogger was started by a tiny company in San Francisco called Pyra Labs in August of 1999. This was in the midst of the dot-com boom. But we weren't exactly a VC-funded, party-throwing, foosball-in-the-lobby-playing, free-beer-drinking outfit. (Unless it was other people's free beer.)

They were three friends, funded by doing annoying contract web projects for big companies, trying to make their own grand entrance onto the Internet landscape. What they were originally trying to do doesn't matter so much now. But while doing it, they created Blogger, more or less on a whim, and they thought — Hmmm... that's kinda interesting.
