Customer comments on this selection.
Solid Educational Book This book is a keeper. Lots of examples, guidelines, explanations of Blogging strategy. I am keeping it as a reference.
It was OK I was expecting to learn more about video podcasting. I felt it could have been a little more informative.
Lots of Ideas I've just started my blog on technology investigations called "Hack-igations". I was looking for ideas on how to make the most of my blog, and Demopoulos' book was a big help. It's full of stories about the experiences of other bloggers. The stories give me a sense for blogging culture; they help me fix realistic expectations about what my blog can and cannot do for me.
More of the same sigh Unfortunately, this book is like so many books on blogging and other Web ventures:
br /
br /1. It promises "insider information."
br /2. It's a thrown together compendium of the writings of Web marketing "gurus," most of whose only real experience is in marketing their own purported expertise in Web marketing.
br /3. From reading it, one does glean a few good ideas.
br /
br /... and like all the others, it will be useful to those who are new to the field. To use an old saying, it's like a Texas longhorn: a point here, a point there, and a lot of bull in between.
A Great Toolbox For The Beginner Blogger A book like this isn't about chewing through pages merely for the purpose of consuming knowledge on social networking. It's for the impassioned evangelist seeking to inspire others to action with nothing more than the seed of thought. The author has taken all these great relationships he's cultivated with winning bloggers around the world and compacted them into tiny, bite-sized chunks of expert advice. Based only on what I read in the book I've developed a blog (..) that within three weeks has attracted about 600 visitors including the attention of more than a few key industry people. And, the book is a great resource to review every once in a while to keep you focused on what works.
