Not the song....
So Ben Hammersley announced that Blogging Hacks is available for preorder now from Amazon. Curious, I sneak on over to check it out.
OK, so I'm likely to order this puppy. But have I been in a stupor for a week and missed this newest addition to Amazon's cross-product-multi-linking? Is this the Google tie-in that was written up in the press last week?
And why isn't sixapart on this bandwagon?
sixapart will be crushed! Google smash!
God I hope not.
also:
Dave, "extremely popular"?
Are you SURE?
Macej seems to be reporting numbers atvariance with your claim.

I got "Customers who are interested in this are also interested in..." and named three different types of lipstick.
Umm, not quite.

I was at the CUE conference this weekend (sidenote: where I attended a session about squeak and they were shocked I'd heard of it). I ran into the tech director at a school district using radio userland who pointed out how inexpensive it is. I countered with moveable type being free and she was surprised and wanted more info as did other people. I wonder how much of the publicity differential has to do with Dave Winer out there talking all the time.
