Hi, this is Guy Kawasaki and I have invited you to the grand open of Kawasaki Library. You know how Ronald Reagan has a library and Richard Nixon has a library and John F. Kennedy has a library. Well, now Guy Kawasaki has a library. So welcome to the grand opening of my. And here it is. This is my library. And. That's the grand opening. This is the concept of the literalfreelibrary.org so what you do, make sure I don't get run over is you buy that thing there. This, this part here costs about $300. You buy that from them and then you get a task rabbit to make a post like this because God knows I don't know how to make that post. And you put it in front of your house and you stick books in it. And then when people come walking down the street, they come and, you know, get your book and then they leave a book and they take a book. So that's the little freelibrary.org concept. Welcome to the opening. Bye.
