“The whole conceit, as you'll hear, of tiny little office is that you can put an entire document, an entire deck, an entire Excel spreadsheet in the URL itself.”
David Pierce
“it turns out you could kind of put your foot on the gas and take it really far and build an entire office suite, including presentation software and including a word processor and a spreadsheet and an outliner and other stuff too. And it could all kind of still be in the URL and be cut and pasted.”
