When I initially read that article, it really rubbed off on me the wrong way. But then I read all the comments on it and seeing friends and others comment/repost it on FB as well and they were all positive comments fully agreeing with the author. I thought maybe I just didn't get it or something.
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that feels the way I do about the article. It seems too much preaching and there's a sense of elitism in the post. It seems hypocritical that the author left Facebook (where by some standards he was doing great things and making a huge impact), to co-found his startup, Asana. Like others in the comments here, I agree that if this message came from someone else, doing something different (i.e. someone doing research in curing cancer) it would mean a lot more. Nothing wrong with Asana, and I think it's a good product, but it's not doing great things in the world and changing it amazingly for the better.
