Newest book publisher: MySpace

The online network, MySpace is putting together a book  yes, a book with words on pages  about living an eco-friendly life. It is even asking for public input to help fill the 160 pages.
The Associated Press said today that the popular network has entered into a partnership with HarperCollins to publish “My Space/Our Planet: Change Is Possible” on Earth Day in April 2008. It will be MySpace’s first book venture and will include a foreword by Tom Anderson, co-founder and president of MySpace.
The public is invited to share tips about how to make a difference in saving the environment and actually help write this book. Those interested can go to the MySpace page until Nov. 7 and share their ideas.
For my part, I have some simple, but daily, tip and though they aren’t so unique I will share them anyway  at least with you Book by Book readers.
I will remember to turn off electrical items not in use, especially lights where I am now also using those curly fluorescent bulbs, and I promise to print many fewer pages from my computer.
With an online mover and shaker like MySpace taking on a book project, I am encouraged that it points to the future of books.

A municipal reporter for The Journal News since 1997, 
very interesting, but I don’t agree with you

Glad you found it interesting and you are very polite to say so. But more important, I am not clear what parts of my posting you don’t agree with and would really like to know. About the future of books, about my small eco-friendly tips or what?
Thanks,
Barbara
