Yes, I am a Token holder.
google link didn't work for me. YMMV. I've said it before: I don't really understand how ether works. I'll say it again, but with variation: I have NO IDEA what the DAO is, except for a place to send ether. I kept my ether this time. Maybe I missed out on the biggest thing since myspace. Being dumb usually ends up costing me in the end.
I am sure that a good number of people that have DAO tokens don't have a very good understanding of how it is supposed to work. None of us knows how it will work in practice. In short, it's a crowdfund, and the fund will pay companies or people to do things with the expectation of a return and the intention to grow the use of Ethereum. If you have DAO tokens, you will likely get rewards akin to a dividend as projects pay out returns, and you can vote the weight of your tokens on proposals. For example, the DAO might fund a company to make widgets, and the DAO might take 5% of the revenue of each widget sold. You can always sell your DAO tokens. Ether is ether, and will likely be worth more over time as usage increases. The DAO is putting ether to work, and tokens will likely be worth more as the value of ETH increases (since it holds a lot of ETH), and as projects that the DAO contracts out become profitable.
