Well, I guess word is out about the other thing that's been keeping me insanely busy this summer.
Check it out! (It's also on Wiley here - dorky (but well done, Robin) cover photo included.)
(My real name is Brett O'Connor for those who do not know.)
Yes, that's right, I am writing a del.icio.us book! Expect this weblog to degrade into pure self-promotion and self-aggrandizing rants shortly. No more fun links for you!
Honestly though, I'm actually really excited about many of the projects that are going to appear in Beginning del.icio.us Mashups because they're various things I've always wanted to do with del.icio.us but, up until now, just haven't had the time and/or opportunity to do.
This book will be a part of a series of other mashup books all by new authors; all of whom seem like incredibly cool guys:
Oh yea, and I was able to sucker![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
revgeorge aka 90% Crud into being my technical editor. So, even though my name will be on the cover, keep in mind him and Sara Shlaer (the development editor) are the ones actually making me look smart. ;)
Update: Oops, forgot about Beginning Yahoo! Maps Mashups by Charles Freedman, which isn't on the site yet.
