That Ole Gang ‘o Mine

The clock is ticking… the time is soon upon us.  I am talking about the "Age of Conversation ’08."  Due out in a month or two you won’t want to miss it. 

In 2007  an entire book called "The Age of Conversation" was created with the input of one hundred bloggers.  This time there are 237 authors – each focused on topics that impact the ongoing conversation that is becoming marketing.

The book sales benefit charity – the content will benefit you.  I will have a chapter in the section called "Moving from Conversation to Action." 

The other sections in the book cover:

• Manifestos
• Keeping Secrets in the Age of Conversation
• The Accidental Marketer
• A New Brand of Creative
• My Marketing Tragedy -
• Business Model Evolution
• Life in the Conversation Lane

Who are the contributors?  Quite a few….
