Good blog posts require good blog fodder (defined as "an interesting idea, story, or link. Referred to as blog fodder when your first reaction is to use it in your blog." see Urban Dictionary.), so I am going to start sending interesting books to interesting ActiveRain bloggers. Now to be clear, we are not giving these books away. We expect that once you finish reading the book you will either send it back to ActiveRain, or preferably pass it onto an associate who will commit to the same set of rules you did, etc, etc.
This week I will be sending out approximately 25 books to ActiveRainers. I will decide who will get the first batch by looking to the authors of this weeks featured posts. So if in the next couple of days you write a post that is selected as a featured post and you would like to receive any of the books listed below, name which book you want in the comments section of your featured post, and make sure your address is correct in your profile. The list of books to choose from: Smart Mobs, Purple Cow, Wikinomics, Cluetrain Manifesto, Naked Conversations, and The Long Tail. If you are having trouble deciding which book to choose, then win Mark Flander's contest and I will send you all six of them!
