Hugh Madison on the Self-publishing Conundrum
AOL Time Warner's iPublish website opened in May 2001 and closed $10 million later, before the year had ended.It looked like a publishing venture with a couple of twists: it used electrons instead of trees and it courted new talent. But it was the selection mechanism that really made it different. [American Invisible, Inc.]
How to Use a Weblog
John Robb of Userland points to a potential positive use of weblogging in the enterprise in this interview:
What is a k-log?. Some people are taking the concept of weblogs and applying it to the wider concept of knowledge management. The result is k-logging ("knowledge-logging"). But will it catch on - will your employer dump Lotus Notes databases in favour of browsers and blog-style brain-dumps? [WriteTheWeb]
Hugh Madison runs American Invisible, Inc. as a way to self-publish his novel. The concept is intriguing and seems to me to be a good complement for the offerings of self-publishing companies like iUniverse, Inc. iUniverse already makes the contents of its authors' books available on the web, but requires that the work be complete before publishing. Hugh has the freedom to publish as he goes.
