S6 EP 11: Contextualizing the Web with Glitch’s Anil Dash

48m · The Webby Podcast · 03 Dec 09:00

Early Web pioneer and Glitch CEO Anil Dash has been a strong voice championing the core values of the Web since practically as long as it has existed. Along the way, he was an early executive at Movable Type, an adviser to the Obama Whitehouse’s Office of Digital Strategy, and adviser to companies like Medium and Donor’s Choose.

Today Anil is the CEO of Glitch, a company that makes it easy to make apps, bots, art and all sorts of digital experiences, all within the Web browser, alongside a community of millions of other supportive creators.

We talk a lot about how the sites and platforms of today could be more inclusive, more ethical and more humane, and of course about Glitch and the joy of watching people make things for the Web.. and if you know Anil, you know we also had to talk about Prince, and his Webby 5 Word Speech, Everything you think, is true. As a real Prince nerd, he helps us fill in some of the gaps of what Prince meant with those five words
