Rebecca’s book comes out in June. I am still unsure what to make of it, but I’m interested to see what it has to say.

    Honestly not sure why. One would think the fundamentals are fairly straightforward. I haven’t got a clue what Rebecca’s approach is going to be though, so it’s hard to say. But going by the title alone, I would ask the questions, "Is there a real need for this?", and "What void does it fill?"

    I think it’s great for rebecca, and I wish her luck with the book. Never the less, I’m not going to pretend to find any need for this book. According to amazon, it’s for anyone who…

    "wasn’t sure what to post, how to post, or even where to go to register"

    Telling people what to post? If you don’t know what to post, maybe there’s no reason to have a weblog. Are there actually books on how to keep a diary and what to put in it? Would anyone see the need for that book? Seems a fair analogy.

    As for the rest of it, Couldn’t it all be explained (and actually has been) in a few paragraphs?

    It just seems like a subject not only without a need, but without enough content to fill much more than a page or two. That said, I’ll look for it in a bookstore soon. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong.

    Yeah, Gary. I agree. I almost feel badly for blurting that out so soon, and passing a judgement on the book, without knowing. Nonetheless, I don’t see the need even so. But, I might borrow a copy, should someone nearby have one.
