A lot of changes are up in my world so, since I'm a blog addict, I started another blog! I know it's crazy but following news for Cultural Research has put me in regular touch with changes in the college textbook industry.
Since I've been looking for an underserved industry niche on which to focus, I've decided to launch College Textbook News. It's a project that will draw on my experience in industry-oriented blogging and web publishing, in the retail booktrade and in academia.
Here are the topics I've covered to date. Gives you a good idea of how dry this project will be!
Espresso Book Machine Version 2.0: Demo Videos & Deals With Google & Xerox
McGraw-Hill Education Introduces ALEKS 360, An E-Textbook System
Cengage Learning & RR Donnelley Enter $375 Million Multiyear Agreement
BookRenter Announces BookRenter Platform & White Label Online Textbook Rental Stores
Twitter Search for "textbook" is Qualitative Goldmine of User Response
If you're in the odd position of actually knowing someone who'd be interested in such news, please pass it on!
