One of the things that pisses me off is a lot of people seem like they don't actually want to disrupt the system, they just want to be the ones running the system. Disrupting the system means an actual change in mindset, not a change in who the slaver is. "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss"

The people that see v4v as all about money are basically prostitutes. I'll give you a service, but I'm expecting some money in exchange. A girl has to eat you know.

I see v4v as a friendship. I help her move, she makes me dinner, I change her tire, she drives me to my surgery. We're providing valuable things to each other that we would normally have to pay for, we're exchanging value, but we're not worried about who's providing more or what's fair because we actually like each other.

I'd rather have sex with a lover than a hooker.

It seems like Adam Curry helps create something, like podcasting or v4v, then people start redefining it to mean something other than what he had intended. Let's put audio behind a paywall and call it podcasting, let's redefine v4v to only mean giving money (and enough for the person getting the money to make a living).
