THE YEAR 2007 marks the 65th anniversary of a bold experiment: the launch of the Little Golden Books during the dark days of World War II. At a time when the literacy rate was not nearly as high as it is now - and privation was felt by nearly all - quality books for children would now be available at a price nearly everyone could afford (25 cents), and sold where ordinary people shopped. Golden Legacy is a lively history of a company, a line of books, the groundbreaking writers and artists who created them, the clever mavericks who marketed and sold them, and the cultural landscape that surrounded them.

Online entrepreneurs have their own responsibility to make sure that their venture into PPC will rake in enough returns for it to be worth their time and money; otherwise, it is only a complete waste. If you are willing to get into PPC publishing, then here are a few tips on how to start gaining profit from it:1. Ensure that your keywords match your online website and business. Anyone can put in keywords left and right, but it takes someone who really knows what he is doing to put in the best keywords. Perhaps keyword suggestion tools can help you decide which ones will be ideal for your site. If not, ask help from search engine specialists. Here are warnings for you, though. Do not go for branded keywords, or else you're prone to lawsuits. Also, avoid keyword spamming. They are definitely a big no-no to the policies of search engines.2. Display your ads. Put advertisements at places where they can be most visible, perhaps at the top or sides. Put them in popular websites whenever poss

Ubisoft today confirmed that they are expanding into film production, as well as book publishing. The latter was definitely not expected, however back in February Ubisoft had announced that they were making a short film based on Assassin’s Creed, and said that “We may consider doing longer-form films or television sometime in the future.” Although it was revealed today that they are indeed heading in that direction, no announcements or specifics were revealed regarding exactly what films or books they may be working on or publishing. It is known though that a Prince of Persia movie is in the works, and that will be directed by Jerry Bruckheimer (All three Pirates of the Caribbean films) and is rumored to be directed by Michael Bay (Transformers, The Island). Ubisoft looks at film making and book publishing as the next logical step for the company: “We will start making movies not because we want to, but because this is what we have to do. If we don’t, we will not be able to
Ithaka, an independent not-for-profit organization with a mission to accelerate the productive uses of information technologies for the benefit of higher education worldwide, has published the report "University Publishing in a Digital Age" - it is available in PDF at the Ithaka website. The abstract on the opening page states: Scholars have a vast range of opportunities to distribute their work, from setting up web pages or blogs, to posting articles to working paper websites or institutional repositories, to including them in peer-reviewed journals or books. In American colleges and universities, access to the internet and World Wide Web is ubiquitous; consequently nearly all intellectual effort results in some form of “publishing”. Yet universities do not treat this function as an important, mission-centric endeavor. The result has been a scholarly publishing industry that many in the university community find to be increasingly out of step with the important values of the acade

On the heels of a conference about publishing which explored what publishers and libraries each feel about publishing in an electronic/digital/virtual/open environment - and with my last post, Is e-publishing THE solution? in mind - we come to piece in Guardian Unlimited by Beth Webb. Print is Dead: Books in Our Digital Age post, Books? Who needs books? Some writers just like to write…, quotes Webb: “the world is already stuffed with books that no one will read.” But Webb’s not being pessimistic. What she’s saying is that playing the publishing game has little if anything to do with art or self-expression. It shouldn’t be just about physical objects sitting inert on shelves. Instead, she encourages authors to use the Internet to spread their work... And for those of us who heard Geoffrey Bilder talk about social publishing and Web 2.0, or understood the possibilities of open access journals and institutional repositories, or have investigated Internet self-publishing-p
I seem to be relating everything I find back to the Bloomsbury Conference, but the whole essence of that conference was to look at ways in which electronic publishing might answer the needs of publishers - particularly mentioned as an example were small university presses, which have been - if I may generalise dangerously! - struggling for at least a decade.The MLA has just published The Future of Scholarly Publishing: From the Ad Hoc Committee on the Future of Scholarly Publishing. The Ad Hoc Committee on the Future of Scholarly Publishing, established by the Modern Language Association in 1999, set out to examine the current state of academic publishing in the fields of languages and literatures, and this is its report - electronically published. It debates whether there is a crisis in scholarly publishing, and looks at the problems facing scholars; and then it poses the question: 'Is electronic publishing the solution?' : The committee agrees that electronic publication is an i
Day 2 (Report on Day 1, here) introduced three new drivers of change: open access, web 2.0 and new technology, and changes in scholarly communications. If one topic was guaranteed to spark debate it was open access, and various papers on or around the topic generated some lively discussion on both sides of the argument: publishers - from Graham Taylor on Day 1 onwards seemed nervous, and a little bit defensive, about the idea while other speakers saw it as a natural progression in scholarly publishing. It seemed to me that if institutional repositories began setting in place mechanisms for peer review and generating journals from the repositories another step might have been made... and indeed there is work being done on OVERLAY journals.Geoffrey Bilder from CrossRef took as his theme three trends:Researchers don't want to readThe edge is the new centreThe publishing value chain is shrinking and used Web 2.0 to demonstrate a brave new world. He also asked, "Why do we publish articles
Print is Dead: Books in Our Digital Age reports that O'Reilly's editor of Craft and Make magazines, Dale Dougherty, spoke at their TOC Conference on “The Beauty of Print in a Digital Age”: In terms of the encroaching tidal wave of online experiences and digital products (what Chris Anderson yesterday called a “relentless march”), Dougherty talked about print and digital co-existing. Or, as he put it, “The old and the new are interwoven, and the art of our day is to figure out how these two pieces fit together.” Which sounds pretty good - very Web 2.0, and pretty much what you would expect from a publisher which is "a chronicler and catalyst of leading-edge development, homing in on the technology trends that really matter and spurring their adoption" and has an "unshakeable belief in the power of information to spur innovation."Slightly odd, then, that Dale Dougherty was: dismissive of an online or digital interface, saying that “the Internet today is largely a col
Link:for this Post: WordPress vs. Movable Type: Open Source Blogging Software Showdown.
I use Typepad so the launch of an open source version of Movable Type, the software that powers us Typepad blogs is exciting.
Scott Karp says that with with Version 4.0 of Movable Type:
Movable Type is now trying to leapfrog past WordPress by introducing community features that give blog readers the ability to create social network profiles and post content. It’s interesting to note that this feature is competitive in some respects to Pluck’s SiteLife, KickApps, and a number of other community feature platforms, although it seems to me that the potential value is limited to sites that work entirely on Movable Type, i.e. not apparently useful for sites that use other content management systems, as almost all large media and corporate sites do.
