The New Blogger
Wow, Blogger is new and now has lots of the great new Web 2.0 features that a blogging tool should have, including tags (they call them labels), the ability to host the blog on your own website URL, the ability to do more customizing of your blog template, etc.

The feature I like best right now, of course, is the tagging function -- which allows you the readers to find posts related to your interests (if, of course, I tag it correctly). The feature they are missing in this incarnation is the ability for you, the user, to tag my entries as well. Now, that would be a really great feature to allow more people to find the posts that would really interest them.

We'll see what more Google has in plans for Blogger, but the new incarnation is a great beginning.

If you haven't begun a blog yet, you might want to test out Blogger. It's free, and capable.

Note that Blogger blogs are hosted at blogspot.com.

Who Owns Your Books: The PGW Dilemma
Why is it that judges and courts think that distributors own the books of their publishing clients? It just doesn't make sense. Now it seems that even with a contract stating that the books remain the property of the publishers, the AMS bankruptcy is resulting in AMS and Wells Fargo making a claim on the books stored in Publishers Group West's warehouse.

So, the publishers -- who will already lose much or all of the proceeds from holiday book sales made via bookstores -- might now also lose their entire remaining inventory to the sordid hands of banks and creditors.

Now, I love banks and have a Wells Fargo credit card. But, if they go through with this forced sale of publishers's books, I will no longer do business with Wells Fargo. And I will call them scum-suckers, to boot.

Many of the publishers with PGW are good friends of mine and incredible publishers. I would hate to see them brought down by the incompetence and malfeasance of the AMS leadership -- which has nothing to do with the competence and capabilities of the PGW leadership and the incredible publishers who have been long-time clients of PGW.

I've been caught in a distributor bankruptcy myself -- and lost about $10,000 in receiveables and some inventory. I knew it was coming, however, and protected myself by switching distribution companies before the bankruptcy actually occurred. So I simply never got paid for my remaining receiveables (which I had already limited).

Personally, as a publisher, I would have left PGW ten months ago. AMS has been having a series of business issues over the past few years and, even for a perpetual optimist like myself, I couldn't see them making their way out of it, as much as I had hoped they would. Perhaps I should have questioned my friends more closely much sooner.

What you should do if you have a distributor is to begin asking the tough questions, especially if payments start getting slower or other questions start popping up. It takes quite a great businessperson or persons to make a success of any distribution business. To my mind, it's not an easy business model, so I admire the people who carry out such a business successfully -- including the original owners and executives of PGW.

Publicity MegaSale with Incredible Free Bonuses, Part II
Just a note to let you know that this MegaSale includes some incredible products worth every cent. I wished they had included me in this offer.

Besides all the great reports, including info on how to get on Oprah, this offer includes one-year access to a database of media contacts. Includes emails. That access is worth the entire deal.

Again, check it out at: http://www.webmarketingmagic.com/ app/aftrack.asp?afid=539106.

Now that's an affiliate link so if you do decide to buy, I get a little bit of money. I wanted to promote this MegaSale even before I found out I could be an affiliate. I never recommend anything as an affiliate that I wouldn't recommend as an unpaid editor or an enthusiastic fan.
