News, tips, trends and miscellany for book publicists

Update your database
Rolling Stone has just launched a new page called “Top 10” which will feature non-fiction and fiction picks each issue, so make sure to keep them in mind for non-music books too.
For some time now, I've closely followed a lot of very informative sites about media and about the publishing industry, although I haven't found one that specifically addresses the needs of the (relatively) small world of book publicity. Since I find myself quite voluble at times about issues that pertain to my job, I thought I'd set up a blog.
The purpose of this blog is provide tips, primarily, but also information about trends that will help book publicists do their jobs with greater ease and efficiency. Since I happen to be a pretty techy, gadgety person, posts will skew towards how we can integrate technology into our lives / jobs, although this is not, by any means, a technology blog.
I'm not looking to promote any one publication / blog / show / venue / etc., although in cases where there are objective and quantifiable differences between items, I'll point that out.

Email bookpublicityblog[at]gmail[dot]com with the word "Subscribe" in the subject line and I'll add you to my distribution list. To unsubscribe, well, you know what to do. Tips are always welcome -- I'm looking for any information about media / venues / etc. that book publicists would find helpful.
My feed is, uh, not working quite yet, so those of you with RSS readers, stay tuned ...
