[SIGCIS-Members] Fwd: [CDCinfo] a question for computer historians regarding Netscape

[Molly Wright Steenson]

I'd look at Wired around that time. Off the top of my head, I think it
might've been a Wired issue around May or June 1994, and a bigger story
about Netscape around October 1994.

I worked at Netscape in 1996, 1998–99, but that's worlds away from Mosaic
Communications Corporation. :)

Best wishes,
Molly Steenson
