3 learnings from Jimmy Wales building an Internet giant (Wikipedia)

1. Your product is an opportunity to build something amazing - not just your wealth.

2. Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow. Early on, Wikipedia had a lot of trouble with inaccuracy/plagiarizing. He could have spent $$$ to hire moderators and fix this. But his solution? Just grow the community and let them find the inaccuracies.

3. The strongest motivator is a powerful mission. If you make one edit on Wikipedia, you go to bed knowing you contributed to the world. That it’s at least a little better than you found it.” - Jimmy Wales

Twitter Tip: Link to the intent URL instead of your username

This might be old news to most of you, but if you link to the intents page, twitter will popup a 'Follow' button that should make it more likely for people to actually follow you. Check it in the action here.
