Dropbox first video / demo - abridged and commented

The first video / demo (early 2008) of the now famous company. You can see what is probably their second video here: (this second video has more storytelling and production value, but is still very simple) Why this video on my channel? I use this video to 1) show my students that also great firms started with simple tools/videos 2) show an example of a simple MVP (Minimum Viable Product) I underline that now the service is well known. At the time they had to “educate“ the market, and this is one of the difficulties (and risks) of being the first mover.
