As Alexis Ohanian learned when he helped to co-found the immensely popular reddit.com, the internet is the most powerful and democratic tool for disseminating information in human history. And when that power is harnessed to create new communities, technologies, businesses or charities, the results can be absolutely stunning. In this book, Alexis will share his ideas, tips and even his own doodles about harnessing the power of the web for good, and along the way, he will share his philosophy with young entrepreneurs all over the globe.
If you want to understand why internet freedom matters, read this book.
If you spend any amount of time on the Internet, and/or around people who are involved with start ups and the fight for a free and open Internet, this is just the same things you've already heard a million times, just this time it's illustrated with bread pigs.
If you don't, it is a good quick introduction to what all those crazy kids out there are doing, along with a sprinkling of how and why.
