- Liza Daly 2009 In Review – Moving From If to How
Liza Daly offers a look at her desk, technology, and the future. It’s a future we like. - Kindle Total Cost of Ownership: Calculating the DRM Tax

Much to chew on here: the overwhelming choice of men for best of lists, the fact that male authors are taught in greater numbers in schools, the idea that female topics are less worthy. Let’s change our thinking in 2010. - Best of ’09: Analysing the Global Ranking of Publishers
Really interesting look at the top 20 publishers in the world. It’s not what you think it is. - The Book Maven’s Top 20 Books of the Decade
Always good to find points of agreement in a best of list. Of course, that’s why we love The Book Maven so much! - Study: Rumors of Written-Word Death Greatly Exaggerated
As we’ve been saying for years. - Use Clay to Shape the Future of Publishing
