The Internet of Things is looking for its VisiCalc\\

Is IoT missing the corporate connection? Because VisiCalc is what got companies interested in microcomputers.

It was not, however, the first piece of software which made the microcomputer useful. Credit for that should go to Electric Pencil (1976), the first word processor for microcomputers, released three years before VisiCalc (1979).

WordStar (1978) also came out before VisiCalc.

So, perhaps IoT is really missing its Electric Pencil?
