Mor is really the one that should be posting today. She and her team have pulled something together in a matter of weeks that I suspect could take other companies months to build. Now, of course, I am admittedly biased and pay day is just around the corner, but as of today, you can see for yourself.
If you’ve been keeping up with SharedBook, you may recall that we published a suite of API methods back in April. Mor talked about our API here and actually alluded to what we’re announcing today. We introduced the open API to give anyone the ability to flow content into our Reverse Publishing Platform for on-demand output. However, since it takes some programming skills to work with an API, we decided to take it one step further. So we used our API and worked with one of Google’s to build Blog2Print, a blog printing widget that is currently compatible with the Blogger platform. The widget is our first step toward giving individuals easier ways to capture the online content they care the most about in a structured book product. Additional compatibility is coming soon.
Beginning today, writers on the Blogger platform and their readers can now turn their favorite posts into books with a single click. In addition, bloggers can sign up to receive a 20 percent share of any books made by other users of their content. You can read the full announcement here, or go to Blog2Print.com to learn more about the widget.
Just one more thing that I’m sure Mor would want me to include -- we’re introducing Blog2Print in beta form today. The environment is fairly stable, but we’re still learning why the content in some blogs doesn’t seem to cooperate as well as in others. We need your help. If you run into any hiccups, please let us know. We hope to learn a lot from this project as we add compatibility and develop new features in the months to come. We'd also like to hear what else you'd like to see.
Few days ago...I purchased my favorite books from Buy.com store and saved $10 on regular price at Couponalbum.com......!!
