Just think of how simple most of the great pieces of software are at their core. 90% of them do not introduce anything that is conceptually very complex… rather, they take something very simple, and they grow the simple idea into something that is accessible, and usable. The ‘killer’ portion of a killer app, accounts for such a small lines of code count compared to the ‘app’ part.
some examples:
unix
wikis
blogs
search engines
all algorithmically simple at their core, but earth shattering and monolithic in their reach and (sometimes) their application.
