    No https, a design that looks like it's from 2003, and a sample rendered in a PDF!

    Whatever about the content, you need to up your design and marketing game.

    First impressions are key and these feels somewhere between lazy and scammy.

    Does this offer much more than the free content + interviews on indiehackers.com

    I signed up for the mailing list and got a message 'Success! Now check your email to confirm your subscription.'

    But 15 minutes later I haven't received an email. I've already checked my spam folder.

    EDIT: still nothing

    You may see a growth in audience if you extend your site styling to support mobile devices.

    I'd buy this book. Always interested in hearing how others get their products to market with regard to work/life commitments, what the balances are, shortcuts to market, first customers, etc.

    How old is this book/interview? If I recall, Patrick sold BCC 4 years ago.
