I just received this from Amazon this afternoon – I can’t wait to read it. If all (or even some) of the pre-release buzz is to believed, this should be an excellent book.

I should write a review of it. It is as good as its hype, but Anderson fleshes out without substantially improving upon the original essay. Like a lot of business books, it reiteratively remasticates its redundancies with a rhythmic repetition. “Tell ’em what you’re gonna tell ’em,” the writing teachers confide, “then tell ’em, then tell ’em what you told ’em.”
As a counter-argument, I offer the Swan of Avon, with whom this post began: “When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions.” He tells us once, but we hear him thrice: First, the news of Ophelia, second, a profound and poetic observation about the course of life, and third, a foreshadowing of the climax of the play, the conquest of Denmark by Fortinbras of Norway.
To all this, Anderson might well answer that Shakespeare is the ever-living embodiment of The Long Tail!
Anyway, let me know your thoughts on using The Long Tail in your real estate marketing.

I became interested in the long tail after seeing it mentioned so often. So I went back to the original sources and came up with a question whose answer still eludes me: in a given market, how much does the long tail weigh?
