Guy Kawasaki posted this on his blog on August 15, 2007 for the first 200 people taking the offer so I am sure it must be over long ago. But I am writing this as an interesting case of promoting his site Truemors.
The deal was/is as Guy says: “If you install Truemors for Facebook, invite ten friends to install it, and post a few truemors, I will send you an autographed copy of The Art of the Start.
