E(merging) Books
A novel re-definition through experimentation of the classical
format of the book is emerging.
Consider the now defunct BookTailor. It used to sell its book
customization software mainly to travel agents - but such
software is likely to conquer other niches (such as the legal
and medical professions). It allows users to select bits and

The Disintermediation of Content
Are content brokers - publishers, distributors, and record
companies - a thing of the past?
In one word: disintermediation
The gradual removal of layers of content brokering and
intermediation - mainly in manufacturing marketing - is the
continuation of a long term trend. Consider music for instance.

when you began? Did you have a mentor? Chances are that the

If You Are Thinking of Publishing An eBook...May I Ask You A Few
When Was The Last Time You Read A Scroll?
I asked the question to make a point, because I'm feed up with
people comparing ebooks to printed books. Folks, they are
basically the same when you think about what they DO. Both
printed books and ebooks hold text and pictures and are used in
the distribution process, it's as simple as that. Here's
something else to think about, before paper people stored their
text and pictures on stones.

million people would go by and see it every day.

could be delivered anywhere in the world in less than a minute!
Immediately dialed the telephone number shown on a vacant
billboard on the freeway and asked how much it would cost to put

would have a special e-mail address or form they could use to
e-mail you the questions. You would then e-mail them back the
answers to their questions. If you're an expert, it will ...
