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. At 29, Ohanian has come to personify the dorm-room tech entrepreneur, changing the world without asking permission. Within a couple of years of graduating from the University of Virginia, Ohanian did just that, selling reddit for millions of dollars. He's gone on to start many other companies, like hipmunk and breadpig, all while representing Y Combinator and investing in over sixty other tech startups. Without Their Permission is his personal guidebook as to how other aspiring entrepreneurs can follow in his footsteps.… (altro)

Bought this after his campus talk because hey, why not get something signed by the co-founder of reddit? The back of the cover notes that it should be about a 5 hour read (or about the length of a flight from New York to San Francisco, assuming it's direct and without weird layovers). Many parts of it were similar to the tour, so if you go to the free talk, you get the gist. The first third is the founding of reddit (rising from the failure of MMM! as an idea), the middle a quickie "Start-up MBA" guide for start-up founders, and the last third a "Hey, look at all the cool stuff the internet's done in the last decade!"

As I'm not really interested in forming a product or making a company, I found the first and last thirds the most compelling. I'm sure the advice is sound (and some of it can be applied to pursuing my graduate studies), but as a redditor and internet user the other two were more relevant. Other goodreads reviewers complain about the diatribe against SOPA and PIPA at the end- I assume you are the incumbents, those that don't realize what a powerful, equalizing tool the web is.

Very quick read, slightly fluffy but with chewy content. ( )

The co-founder of Reddit, Alexis Ohanian, made one of his own points when he leaked part of his book, Without Their Permission, on the site known as “the front page of the Internet” prior to its publication: Information wants to be free.

His book is part biography and part tech-business how-to, with some interesting insights into how traditional media is killing themselves by refusing to adapt quickly to changes in technology.
