  • No Speech Server book.....yet

    Well Sara and I found out today that MS Press won't publish our book. I think that the bottom line is just that they feel the audience is too small and they won't sell enough copies to make it worthwhile. MSS is still just a niche market in their eyes...

  • 70-536 Moving Quickly

    Well, we've got some pretty stiff stiff competition -- Ann's book is getting all the glory but our 70-536 MCTS Guide is already kicking some butt. We moved up 1,000 points since yesterday overall on Amazon's rankings and have just broken #60 in Computers and Technology. Rumore has it that both Herb Sewell...

  • Foundations of Atlas - Rapid Ajax Development with ASP.NET 2.0

    I just got a copy of Foundations of Atlas - Rapid Ajax Development with ASP.NET 2.0 by Laurence Moroney. All I can say is, It's just plain good. Actually, it's great. So far, it's the best Ajax book I've read ( Wally still hasnt' mailed me a copy of his but i"m sure it's great too ). I have Moroney's...

  • My book hits Amazon top 100 in Technology

    The rankings change frequently, but yesterday, the day before My First MS Press Book was officially released, it broke the Top 100 on Amazon's rankings for Computer and Internet . It's sitting at 2,537 overall which is very cool but we have a long way to go. In short, I've been working with the wonderful...

  • Ideas Wanted

    Well, as I sit here swamped in more work than I ever imagined that I'd be lucky enough to have, I need to be proactive... As I've mentioned a few times, I think Sahil currently holds the high water mark for kick a55 . Ok, if I racked my little brain I'm sure Charles Petzold or Jeffrey Richter probably...

  • Dear Apress....

    As a loyal customer, I need to ask you for one favor. This is a very petty and immature request on my part, but I have to ask it anyway. Please don't give Tobin any more HardCovers for his books: Working with Tobin is hard enough as it is because he outdoes me at everything, we have essentially a Homer...

  • HoneyPots?

    Considering that lately I'm falling flat on my face in the 'Things I want to do' vs 'Things I actually find time to do' category, the issue of HoneyPots really got my interest up. Just saw Apress is putting out a new book on HoneyPots by Roger Grimes (wasn't that Brad Pitt's name in 12 Monkeys ? ). Anyway...
