Content Nation - The Book

Content Nation: Surviving and Thriving as Social Media Changes Our Work, Our Lives and Our Future

So here it is - the book that Content Nation is developing. Just as the Content Nation community is exploring the edges of social media's impact so will our book explore just what it is that a book can be and do. The book will be available always as an ad-supported "Live Book" here for your viewing and commenting as we harvest content from Content Nation members that fits. Later this year John Wiley & Sons, Inc. will release a print edition of this online book. Contributions from members will be attributed in the print edition. We envision this cycle going on fairly endlessly, with new community content generating new subscription content that in turn will prompt new trade publishing events capturing the best of Content Nation's insights.

Read, contribute , enjoy - and help us get smarter about social media!
