Those of you who write books should consider some alternate forms of publicising it:
Doyle; I call this hub work. Meaning taking advantage of contemporary tools of network structures. This work is much more than just self promoting. It is about how well one can connect to others, and the volume of connection. A mention in Slash dot can point a hundred thousand hits in a day on a given site. This work is more or less the kind of work that building a great wide spread party organization used to mean a hundred years ago. The main difference now is about having a technical tool to aid the process in a way news paper publicity once did. That means taking better advantage of interactivity of content than was possible with one to many media. Contact lists, attention to where your audience lies, and some sense of what works for a large and larger audience are questions of interactivity content and hub work. Not the content per se, but the network properties being built up in the framework of the content. Doyle
