Last Friday Seth Godin offered galley copies of his new book<\/a>, Small Is the New Big<\/a>\"\"to the first 30 people to send an email to his publisher. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to be fast enough to respond — an apposite metaphor for internet marketing generally.<\/p>\n

The book got here today, but it ain’t your father’s galley proofs. It’s a print-on-demand trade paperback, perfect bound with its own custom shell. It’s a book without a bar code. What it is is a superb marketing piece. Witness me writing about it without having read it!<\/p>\n

I have two Open Houses Sunday, in the sleepy, sleepy summertime. Sadly, I should have plenty of time to read. I’ll let you know what I think of the book.<\/p>\n

I’ve added a link in the Reading List in the sidebar to pre-order the book.
