Thanks.

We will open any aspect of the company- the data, the code, etc as long as it does not affect user privacy or cause us to run afoul of the law.

When we say Open, we really mean it.

Sorry.

Can you use the about/contact page?

You can submit your patch :-)

How much money can we make showing ads? Good question.

But how much money can be distributed if the objective is to be truly equitable?

Maybe its sustainable, maybe its not. But we had to ask this question. Who else would be this foolish? :-)

Its not just submitters who share the profits. People who read and vote are helping to filter and sort content. They are just as important.

If startups believe that Web 2.0 is all about users, then we must find a way to really engage with them. Web 2.0 users are savvy, have a strong sense of community. Then why treat them as just passive consumers. Debian (spi-inc) allows users to graduate to board members. We would like a Web 2.0 company to do the same.

I believe the better question to ask is: If a community had to distribute profits what is the most equitable way to do it?

Can you suggest an edit that would be useful?

Here are some that I can think of: iter8r - A community operated social news site iter8r - Because transparency is not a just a plastic film :-) iter8r - We are "Open for business"
