Referly is all about getting influencers and trendsetters paid. Thats it. Existing affiliate programs are broken and a UX that caters to that category is important for adoption. Its as simple as that.
Its current phase is only to build out the product and get their name out there to the smaller influencers from bloggers to those with relatively small following. The real money will come in when you start seeing Shaq's tweets with referly links.
I don't take the words of the author as a prophecy but I see where he is going; and isn't that what science fiction authors kinda did 20-30 years ago? They dreamt; and I wish more people can dream of greater possibilities.
Not too shabby for a reporter.
I can see it working in more open roads where this would be easy to see up ahead, but when space gets narrow, the visibility angle becomes tough.
Valiant effort though.
