I've Been Mentioned In A BookUtterlyBoring.com (along with my name) was mentioned in a book entitled Buzz Marketing with Blogs For Dummies. The author of the books asked my permission months ago to put a screen shot of this site in her book in a section talking about BlogAds. I completely forgot about signing the permission form until I was digging through my e-mail and saw the email conversation I had with the author a few months, and decided to look to see if the book has been published. It has, so I emailed the author to see if I could get a copy of the book (not holding my breath). You can search the contents of the book to see the screen shot of my site. If anybody decides to purchase the book, let me know how it is. Posted by Jake on 05/29/05 @ 12:17 PM

Jake said on 05/30/05 @ 09:29 AM: Dude, there are Dummies books for everything. Patrick said on 05/30/05 @ 06:26 PM: Many authors will send you a copy of their book if they include your site. I have a copy of http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbninquiry.asp?ISBN=1402010990&pdf=y because they grabbed a page from our LUG web site. cybele said on 06/13/05 @ 02:43 PM: I bought the book and quite like it. I think the whole "for dummies" thing is irrelevant. It's just a basic primer. Some of the stuff about maximizing blogs for businesses is pretty basic, but every blogger who wants to up their traffic can learn something from it. I picked it up because one of the group blogs I write for is in there. I'll check what's in there about you, if you like. Post a comment |
