Tech company stories & documentaries Videos Recommended on Hacker News (204)

Tech company stories & documentaries is one of the 150 topics Hacker News readers organize their video recommendations around. These 204 videos each earned real recommendations in real HN threads between 2007 and 2026 — 258 recommendations in total — and they're ranked by how many separate months the community kept coming back to them, not by view count.

Tech company histories: Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Amazon, Yelp, Valve, documentaries about companies, product launches, advertising history, corporate culture and scandals.

Why HN keeps sending people here — on Micro Men - 720p (2009): “'Micro Men' is an excellent TV drama” — an HN commenter, 2019.
