Get comfy!
hugh macleod mentions a book collaboration effort via blogging here and here. I'm intrigued with the idea of seeing the process of developing a book unfold on a blog so I hope this will pan out. The weird thing in reading the new url for the blog (http://spaces.msn.com/members/theredcouch/) is how I saw what I wanted to see. I read "there-d-couch" as some sort of slang for "come on in and make yourself comfy" or "sit a spell" - perhaps my natural southern hospitality showing through. Actually, Scoble says the name is "the red couch"
Q: What should the title of the book be?
A: For now, I'm going to call it "the red couch project." Cause I hate the names we came up with earlier this week. "Conversational Marketing" sounds lame. "Corporate Weblogging Manifesto" is just as lame, plus it sounds like we copied the idea from the Cluetrain guys. "Blogging in business?" Please.
Anyway, if Seth Godin can do a book called "the Purple Cow" we can do a book called "The Red Couch."
I think my interpretation still works.
