A few pieces of business:
I recently met with a blog buddy and fellow publishing nerd (except he’s actually significantly cooler than I am) last week. Guy Gonzalez and his band of merry (wo)men put together the first annual Digital Book World conference, which is this Tuesday and Wednesday at the Sheraton NY Hotel & Towers. This evening is my first official outing as contributing editor for their brand-spanking new website/blog. So keep your eyes peeled in the next few weeks over at DBW for my publishing, well, musings if you will… ;-)
So on that publishing and DBW note, I wanted to post some videos of their cool event (which I sadly could not attend) 7×20x21. The brilliant Stephanie Anderson spoke about her book lover basketball league and how it’s fun that will save the industry (did I mention she’s brilliant and I love her?). Here’s the video:
And the equally brilliant Ryan Chapman did an awesome presentation on the publishing equivalent to Mad Men’s Sterling Cooper Draper Price (basically – who will be the one to stand out from the rest due to their awesome awesomeness?).
Anyway, I found this enormously entertaining, so if you agree there are more videos here. Peace out homies.
