The O'Reilly catalog page is up for "Essential Blogging: Selecting and Using Weblog Tools," which is the blog-book I contributed to, along with Rael "Blosxom" Dornfest, J. Scott "Radio" Johnson, Shelley "Burning Bird" Powers, and Mena and Ben "Movable Type" Trott. You can pre-order your copy now; Nat, the editor, tells me that there'll be a shot of the cover up soon, too.
Anyone can run a blog (an online journal). From personal diaries to political commentary and technology observations, bloggers are making their voices heard around the world. Essential Blogging helps you select the right blogging software for your needs and show how to get your blog up and running.
You'll learn the ingredients of a successful blog, and then get detailed installation, configuration and operation instructions for the leading blogging software: Blogger, Radio Userland, Movable Type, and Blosxom. After showing you how to acquire, set-up, and run these leading software packages, Essential Blogging takes you through the more advanced features, so that by the time you finish, you'll be up and blogging with the best of them.
(Thanks, Nat!)
