Blog inc.

I'm guessing some of you may have already found this awesome book, Blog inc.

I love how the book is a mix of tutorials and explanations as well as personal interviews with some of my favorite bloggers!!!

Here is the wonderful video from the recent live chat between Joy Cho and Naomi Davis:


Here is one of my favorite inspirational quotes from the book so far:

"Whenever I talk to friends or clients who are struggling to figure out the next phase of their life or career, I always encourage them to start a blog.  Maybe you're burnt out from your tedious 40-hour workweek and want to pursue your hobby of baking miniature pies full time.  Or maybe you're a filmmaker and want to start offering tutorials on how the average person can create short films.  A blog can be whatever you want it to be - a diary, a visual essay, an editorial space, a place for discussion and debate, or a scrapbook of inspiration.  More than anything, a blog is a great way to get your ideas out into the world and see what people have to say in response.  You could receive the feedback and kick in the pants you need to launch your new pie company or begin teaching film classes at your local college.  In this chapter, I'll explain why you should blog, the types of blogs you could potentially have, and the best part - how to get it all started."

Do you have any great blogging books you would recommend???  Please share the love!! =)
