Nice article. At first, I thought it would be more similar to our manifesto on Leanpub: http://leanpub.com/manifesto http://leanpub.com/manifesto. I was pleasantly surprised to find a new take on the concept. It's a nice complement. For comparison, the points from the Leanpub manifesto are: 1. There are market risks, technical risks and a very low probability of success. 2. Both writing a book and creating a startup are highly creative processes undertaken by one or a few people working closely together. 3. Historically it has taken about a year, often spent in isolation or "stealth mode", to develop and release the first version. 4. Historically, startups have been funded by VCs and authors have been funded by publishers, both of which are hit-driven businesses.
