@erictwillis Congrats on the book, just read this great news after a laborious working day (no distraction, no PH) and was immediately sold, backed the project. All the best for you and your writing, I so admire your energy :)
Great job @erictwillis! Would love to know how you feel about the future of product hunt and whether this is something that will receive a lot of traction for years to come or if it's more just a "here an now" platform for sharing products.
@diplateevo The cost of creating a product or launching a product has consistently dropped and more people are learning how to develop software. That means more products will be created as more people are able to do it. As long as Product Hunt is being driven by a great team, it will remain the place to discover new tech products (and possibly other types of products as the team jumps into other verticals. This is not a fad.
@erictwillis Can't wait to read it. We got our own taste of just how much of an impact the community makes when PixelSquid made it onto Product Hunt at the early stage of our launch. Really looking forward to reading other's experiences and how they have either devised products or evolved existing ones due, in part, to the feedback from Product Hunt addicted people (like myself). Great job!
I am eager to get my hand on this book. Eric is a wonderful and knowledgeable guy, and I am sure that this book will become quite a learning curve for many of us, and required reading for many founders. Thanks Eric for putting the time and effort in to distill your knowledge in this book.
@milesb Thanks for the kinds words, Miles. I'll be working very hard to deliver a valuable book.

I just backed this and am very much looking forward to it. Congrats on getting me to sign up for Kickstarter - I've been resisting for ages! You succeeded where even Reading Rainbow could not. (Though they came close.)
