Imagine we’re touring the great marketplace of ideas, where two bakers set up shop.
One asked, “How can I feed the hungry?”
The other asked, “How can I keep them browsing pastries?”
One built a community.
The other built... a mall.
Guess whose bread still smells warm today?
LinkedIn didn’t lose because it baked bad bread.
It lost because it forgot it was supposed to feed people—
and instead built a cheesy food court nobody asked for.
I liked the example a lot Dean. And that’s absolutely true, LI forgets many things .
