Story of Things tells the messy, dramatic, deeply human history of the tools we

build with — the way those stories actually deserve to be told.

Every technology you use has a story: a rivalry, a mistake, a stubborn idea, a

bet that shouldn't have paid off. Story of Things digs into the history of the

tools developers live inside all day, and turns each one into something worth

listening to — on your commute, at the gym, or wherever your mind wanders.

No dry timelines. No jargon for its own sake. Just great stories about the

things we take for granted.
