Hints of The Book Publishing Future
The book publishing industry is changing, and everyone thinks they know where it is going. Amazon is banking on the Kindle, other people have their own ideas.
The Futurist has an article on The 21st Century Writer which explores some views on the future of publishing and writing.
Meanwhile, Lulu.com has made a deal with Borders. See Reuters and The New Observer. It will be interesting to see if the Lulu-Borders deal goes anywhere, since that touches on the direction I think the writing-publishing industry should go.
