University of East Anglia Lecture

LIKE: THE BUTTON THAT CHANGED THE WORLD

Quid Founder Bob Goodson shares the unlikely journey behind the world’s most clicked icon: the like button.

In this personal talk drawn from Like: The Button That Changed the World, Goodson reflects on co-creating the early concept, navigating startup life in the Bay Area, and watching a simple concept scale to cultural ubiquity.

Weaving together history, media theory, and AI, Goodson invites the audience to consider the like button not just as a product—but as a mirror of our desires, values, and vulnerabilities.
