from Joe. Go read his blog. - Amazon.com
- The point of the book reviews is not to make money. But if I’m gonna link to Amazon anyway, I might as well get a commission. So all the blog is
in association with Amazon.com
as the linking agreement says I have to tell you. - Creative Commons
- I shouldn’t forget the great work that Creative Commons has done creating its licenses, one of which I use for this site. Because of their work, readers can easily appropriate my work for non-commercial purposes.
- LibraryThing
- LibraryThing is the best of the online personal library cataloging sites. A couple of years ago, I wasn’t particularly impressed with their features, but they’ve improved quite a bit. You can see everything I think I’ve read there.
- Twitter Tools
- My personal tweets can be found in the sidebar thanks to Alex King’s Twitter Tools Wordpress plugin. Or, you can just follow kingrat on Twitter.
- Events Manager
- I use David Benini’s Events Manager plugin to manage the Seattle Area Author Events page. It’s a great plugin.
- Wordpress
- Wordpress is a great blog platform.
