    One quick note: "The World According to Twitter" is not published by O'Reilly, as you wrote. It's published by Black Dog & Leventhal, as you can see by the press release that you posted.

    As for "Pogue is trying to leapfrog," "Pogue is calling his book the first of its kind," etc... In fact, I couldn't care much less. Does it really make that much difference which book comes out first? I mean, I love the free publicity in your post and all, but come on... "feud!?"

    Man... leave it to Gawker! :)

    Twitter books? I think I'm going to go with "Everybody loses."

    And this is supposed to make us want to buy the book? Lame jokes about hiccups from unfunny people? No wonder publishing is dying if crap like this is competing for shelf space.

    From the bottom of my heart I wish you all the luck in the world. I just think that when Sarah Palin adopts something, its days of hipness are officially over.

    Dudes. These are just two joke books. Pretty good ones, but still.

    I think the race isn't so much between the authors as it is to get in before everyone gets sick of Twitter.
