I’ve been remiss in posting about my contribution to the book The Age of Conversation. It now has a group on Facebook – connect with me there. As to what this is all about, I’m posting the entire group description below since it’s linkalicious. Thanks to Mark Goren for putting that group together.

This is a great story.

Back
in April, Drew McLellan and Gavin Heaton put out the call to their
respective communities: who would like to contribute a chapter to a
book called, “The Age of Conversation”? Their goal was 100 authors,
each penning one “chapter”, 400 words on a topic related to the book’s
title. That was all the instruction we would get.

Along the way,
the book has taken on a life of its own. 100% percent of the proceeds
are going to charity. The book was given a special dedication. One
contributor took eight blog posts to introduce each author. And, now,
Drew and Gavin have announced that the book will be available as a
hardcover, paperback and ebook.

Here are some links to learn more about the charity, dedication and other great stuff about the book:

for news, reviews and other related stuff.
