O/wise, type 'd' now. One thing I've heard several times is that blogging is a good way of promoting one's own books. (I've got at least three books either published or to-be-published. [[ ... .]]) Now, outside this list nobody knows me--and that's fine, except that with a just published ebook, it's time to make my name and ebook public. Before I rush out and sign up with some blogging websites, would be be better to use a FBSD port and do it myself? Ill be open about this: I'm still not _entirely_ sure whata blog is. But I'm a fast study :) If there are better places to ask about web logs, URL's please... . gary PS: Any reason why nobody here has read my ebook? It is for geeks and about op en source stuff, so, like , v'mon, people -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix Journey Toward the Dawn, E-Book: http://www.thought.org The 7.97a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org
