It's a great idea. Another thought -- publish posts in a leading
trade journal. It's current, and a mix of topics.
We did that on E-Tailer's Digest (dedicated to retailing), where
we are published in two publications as a column -- Gifts &
Decorative Accessories Magazine (gift retailers) and Monday
Magazine (India). We understand this is a first -- on- and
off-line. Well received by the publications and readers. G&DA
is a 1200 word column, where we pick the best posts and publish.
I try to mix up the content. The publisher of MM is on the list,
so he picks what he needs. Works well.
