From Blogs to Books - A History of the Web in Print

Most people I encounter in my offline life do not surf the internet, and I think about all the rich content they are missing. The people I encounter on the internet work hard to spread interesting content, and are rarely rewarded for their efforts. But in the last few years, quite a few interesting ideas that broke on the web are now breaking through to "meatspace" through book publishing, which is where the real money is -for the lucky ones.
