1. Build a great product

2. Give it away for free

3. ???

4. Profit!

Are you sure you can't merge 2 and 3 into something more... sensible?



I guess we're not as skeptical about this underwear-gnome business plan as you are. We don't know for sure what #3 is going to be and I don't think we have enough information yet to decide.

It's not just a product (or a product at all, since we aren't selling it). It's also a framework and what we are really concerned with building is the community around it. That's where our priorities are at the moment.
