Social Machines: How to Develop Connected Products That Change Customers' Lives

Acknowledgments

This book is the result of a journey I’ve been on for several years with many people and organizations. To all of my backers and supporters—financial, professional, personal, and otherwise—a sincere thank you. The material in these pages would have been impossible without you. To everyone I have worked with in bringing Bug Labs to life and through all its stages, this book has your collective fingerprints all over it. Thanks for everything you’ve contributed. Thanks to everyone at John Wiley & Sons, Inc., for giving me the chance to write my first book and providing a wonderful staff of editors and artists to support and guide me through it all.

Thanks to my family and friends for putting up with my frequent disappearances and silent treatments as I wrote. And finally, thank you to my wonderful wife and children for being my constant source of inspiration, motivation, and laughter.
