I think Ev is a brilliant mind. For comparison, Steve Jobs is often cited as being brilliant and a visionary, but he was an egomaniac as well. The difference being, Steve Jobs was celebrated as a genius. I don't think Ev is on the same playing field as Jobs, but there are some parallels here. Twitter started off as a great platform, then once the investors came on board it started going down hill. I think there is hope for Medium, it will take more than Ev to make it a profitable company though.
