- O’Reilly Tools of Change (TOC) Conference: The presentations - God bless O’Reilly: slides, descriptions and more from many of the speakers.
- DRM for Books: Will Publishers Learn Anything from the Music Industry’s Mistakes? - Medialoper reports from TOC
- First Proprietary and Exclusive Novel Published By Borders - Is it just me, or have I been saying for a while that this would happen? Booksellers don’t actually need publishers, and they’re starting to notice. (Overstatement: but it reveals ramifications.)
