If The Shoe Fits: NOT Changing the World
by Miki Saxon
A Friday series exploring Startups and the people who make them go. Read all If the Shoe Fits posts here.
As I keep saying, I do love CB Insights daily newsletter. It provides me with needed information, but my love stems from Anand Sanwal’s quirky, irreverent, incisive comments, like this one.
I now see toothbrushes in a whole new light after this comment by the founder of a subscription-as-a-service toothbrush company.
Does this guy actually believe that something (AKA a toothbrush) that has no wheels, software or circuits can substitute as an “extension of personality?”
The only “change the world” ethos I can find here is greed coupled with the ability to sucker people who are either too lazy, too incompetent or too busy on social media to take care of their basic necessities.
Good grief, is this the best the vaunted Silicon Valley innovation machine can produce?
