That's what you'll learn on this episode of Web Masters when Aaron talks with Bob Metcalfe, the law's namesake. Bob explain's the law's critical insight on how multimedia networks operate and scale and offers some unique perspective on the implications of network growth.
In addition to his insights about Metcalfe's law, Bob also talks about his work inventing ethernet, the backbone of local area networks, and how he founded the multi-billion-dollar 3Com corporation. In other words, a lot of what all of us do on the Internet every day is thanks to the work of Bob Metcalfe.
