RSS and Atom in Action on Slashdot

Simon P. Chappell writes "We've all seen them, those icons that decorate blogs and websites; sometimes they're just little orange squares with white stripes, while others say RSS or Atom. Many of us have heard of feeds and podcasts and aggregators. What are these things and where did they come from? Well, Dave Johnson, the author of the open source Roller blogging software, is glad you asked and by way of an answer, he's written RSS and Atom in Action." Read the rest of Simon's review.

Woohoo! Simon likes the book and gives it an 8/10 rating.

The /. publicity is great but you're losing a lot of sales by not having your book stocked at Amazon.co.uk. All the other major UK online book sellers have it but not Amazon and, unfortunately, that's the one that the vast majority of people in the UK use.

You should contact your publisher about that because it looks as though they're blowing your chance to top the programming book charts in the UK.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll talk to Manning about that.
