Blogging Heroes Book Excerpt

Blogging and other Web 2.0 technologies has had a significant impact on the lives of millions. However, none perhaps more so than on people who found new vocations and streams of income.

A new book called Blogging Heroes: Interviews with 30 of the Top Bloggers chronicles this through in-depth interviews. Lifehacker's Gina Trapani, TUAW's Scott McNulty and Dowload Squad's Grant Robertson are among those featured in the book.

The publisher has wisely allowed each blogger to post a PDF of the chapter he/she is featured in. Here's mine (PDF). The book is available for pre-sale on Amazon.

Steve, I've just read your conversation in Blogging Heroes about using social networks and finding a niche to blog about. Well, here's one: HelpWorldClimate.com. It also, sort of, links with your previous post.

Thats really smart marketing. I think that leveraging content as a way to give a sneak preview of the greater whole is wise.

Your chapter is great, as expected. I pre-ordered a copy of the book (int. shipping 9-36 days...) because I'm curious about the other ones.

Thanks for posting your interview, Steve. This goes in some different directions from the others, and that's good.
Best,
