This is awesome. But, I hope Blake is fine with this. I did the same thing earlier, scraped the posts and created a epub. He immediately sent me an email: Please remove the ePub version of my notes that you put on Github. Peter Thiel, Clarium, and I are still figuring out what to do with the content. Very likely we will be publishing something ourselves. As you do not own the content and did not ask for permission, please take down the doc immediately (You can of course do this for personal use. Just please don't distribute it right now.)

  I hope Blake Masters & Clarium come up with their own version soon. It is easier to be consumed on iPad/Kindle than on web.

    I'd love for them to make a Leanpub version (PDF + EPUB + MOBI). I've tweeted at Blake asking him if he's interested, and obviously anything that is made should be done with Peter Thiel's approval. It would have taken us 5 minutes to make a Leanpub version, but we respect copyright, both Blake's and Peter's, so we haven't :) Anyway, Blake, please email me (peter@leanpub.com) or tweet me (@peterarmstrong) if you're interested...

  Andreas, rdd.me has a very nice facility for sending web pages to the Kindle. Also, here is what @bgmasters has already said about reproducing the content: http://blakemasters.tumblr.com/post/22922727433/read-share-please-dont-transform-or-sell http://blakemasters.tumblr.com/post/22922727433/read-share-p...

    Then his stated goals shouldn't prevent people making conversions to other formats. You just have to be careful with not misrepresenting the work, something that is already part of the non-transferable author rights in a few countries.

Hah! What a dork. These cult-leader types always want to control the message.
