I purchased this book because Audrey and Danny put on great events in LA area. I've been to one of them and they were extremly helpful and the event was great :)
I'm sure the book has a ton of useful information and I will definitely be reading it.
You should purchase the book if you believe in giving back to the people who give there time to open source and helping others.
I think comparing Dalton project to twitter is wrong. It's wrong because the whole point of it is that there is huge potential for something else, something more. I think Dalton's vision of what the project could be is blurry and I think thats a good thing.
So does Paul Graham - "The popular image of the visionary is someone with a clear view of the future, but empirically it may be better to have a blurry one."
I donated because I want to see him try and would like to see something new (not twitter) come out of this. I think people lack imagination (myself included) and thats why they keep saying it's a twitter clone that is paid. I'm really glad he has enough courage to try. Thank you, Dalton.
