No. Nice throwback to Katalin Karikó though.

Is the tech company that he is primarily known for being associated with best known as a website?

I hope this is clear (and maybe shows my slightly old-fashioned view of how the internet works). For example, I would classify Google and Facebook (now Meta?) as "primarily websites", but Apple (phones and other hardware) and Microsoft (primarily software) as not "primarily websites". Services that are mostly accessed through the internet (such as Netflix) probably go in the first bucket.

I think it likely means that he has written a book or two, but it's not what he is best known for.
