Chance meetings are especially important in causing new things to happen. But what organization measures that? No one measures progress till there is a project to measure the progress of. I bet even Google doesn't formally measure the rate at which new things get started.

I know about the power of chance meetings because Y Combinator is explicitly designed to magnify it. Whenever YC brings together any group of more than about 4 founders for any reason, there ends up being an important conversation between some pair of them.

A lot of the serendipitous moments are lost with remote work. I don’t know if technology could fix that!

Twitter is quite good for serendipity. So long as you follow a wide spectrum of accounts.

This is spooky, unsettling and possibly genius.

The missing killer app for remote work is not another productivity tool, it's "browse" (right now everything is search). And I'm not talking about a virtual floor plan of cubicles...

Problem is those virtual floor plan apps dont let you actually browse. Its just a reskinned voice channel. Proximity based & spatial let you actually move about and browse
