2000-May-24 Strategy Letter II: Chicken and Egg Problems
From The Joel on Software Translation Project
Original article: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000054.html
"If you're in the platform creation business, you are probably going to suffer from what is commonly known as the chicken and egg problem. Nobody is going to buy your platform until there's good software that runs on it, and nobody is going to write software until you have a big installed base. Ooops."
