Well, books started arriving in people's hands this week, as Amazon received their stock and started shipping out to everyone who pre-ordered. (While incredibly exciting, it also makes me a little woozy. Oh God, people are actually going to read it…

Booyah, Deanna! That's what I'm talkin about. This is SO interesting to hear about...I think what you're doing digitally is among the most brilliant I've heard in a while. Keep it comin' and let us know how it goes -- we all are learning from you.

@Siobhan: The good thing about Backtweets is that you don't have to be on Twitter -- it will just track references to whatever website URL you put in. Handy! You can also look at this guide to Twitter I wrote, or the more holistic "Why Twitter, anyw…
