Beautiful and pretty open piece by Kevin Rose on mistakes he made at Digg; on how he failed to continue to sell his vision and motivate the team to do the undoable and think the unthinkable. Some good learnings in that post for media innovators. It was my job to counter these doubts by selling the vision. This is something I failed to do. In the end I compromised on functionality, building the easier “me too” features that were standard in the industry, while leaving dozens of deeper features on the cutting room floor.
