Welcome to the inaugural meeting of the board of The Vergecast Inc. The one and only item on the agenda for today? Build the greatest tech company in the history of the universe. We will borrow, steal, and buy the best products and businesses from tech companies around the world in order to offer the best possible line of products. Money is no object, though we\u2019d like to make some at some point. Let\u2019s begin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

(Shout out to The Big Picture<\/em><\/a> <\/em>for some inspiration on the format.) The rules are simple enough: we get to take one product in each category we\u2019re choosing to enter, though we can only take one product from a given company. At the end of the exercise, we\u2019ll have our lineup of gadgets, apps, B2B moneymakers, and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Make sure you listen before you read the list below because it completely spoils the whole episode. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n But if you want a refresher, here\u2019s the official product lineup of The Vergecast Inc.:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
