Tim O'Reilly - Google+ - I read Brad Stone's history of Amazon, The Everything…

Excerpt from a Tim O'Reilly review of "The Everything Store"
"After Steve Jobs died, everyone was saying "Will we ever see his like again?"  I would always respond, "What do you mean?  He's already here, and his name is Jeff Bezos.  He's the only other tech entrepreneur I know who has transformed multiple industries, and shown the ability to work his magic not once but many times.  He's been the misunderstood underdog who came out on top because of vision, passion, and persistence."
(OK, since then, Elon Musk has shown signs of pulling off the same ambition. But the fact remains that Jeff is one of the most important and successful entrepreneurs of our time.)"
