Billionaire buddies: Bill Gates on Jeff Bezos
Writing for Time magazine, Bill Gates penned a glowing profile of the guy who lives a few mansions down in Medina, Jeff Bezos.
Gates wrote the piece for Time’s listing of the 100 most influential people. (I found the link via Silicon Alley Insider).
Apparently Gates is pretty impressed with the Kindle. I hate to spoil the ending, but Gates said the device and its effect on books could put Bezos “in the same ranks as Johannes Gutenberg.”
