Thanks. Creators spearhead cultural change. Our core mission for Hubski is to enable people to have quality discussions about what interests them. IMO there is no reason why the products of individuals should be excluded. Likely the most important ideas are to be found there first.
The great thing about the internet is that it's not a broadcast medium—when you put something out there, you get something else back. Books used to be viewed as these canonical artifacts—what was written was absolute truth. But now, when something is published, it's just the start of a conversation. This is why I love your policy—you have a community of intelligent people who take the time to digest and thoughtfully discuss big ideas. If these big ideas take the form of a long Hubski post, or a link to a blog, the difference is entirely semantic.
