01/15/2003 08:47 AMTo write: perchance to try again: ay, there's the rub1 or Do I Write
Another (PHP2) Book?
Anyone who was IMing me in the May / June / July time frame may be
surprised to see this entry. Things change and time makes pain and
bad memories drift away. I am speaking, of course, about the O'Reilly
Essential Blogging writing process which was just plain awful and made
me swear that I would N_E_V_E_R write another book for money. And
here I am.
I've been approached by Sams to write a PHP 5 in 21 Days book and I'm
torn. I just don't know whether I want to walk this road again.
Here's the situation as I see it:
Pros
I am the PHP Journal columnist for "On the Horizon" which talks about
new PHP 4.x and 5.x features so it makes sense to write this
I'm virtually certain that I'd enjoy working with this editor more
than my last. Shelley strikes me as just plain cool (she handled
giving out books to a pack of ravenous open source folk at PHP CON
with a lot of style and grace).
Good self promotion
Would probably generate consulting work although that is by no means
clear
Establishes my credentials more firmly and anchors me to PHP even more
Chance to talk about things like templating and event driven coding
$$$ (although there is never all that much of it)
Having an editor
Cons
Having an editor
Have to create a __good__ website for the book
How will they bungle the online side of it in a new and creative way?
Lose the source code? Post it wrong?
Managing the book writing and blogging and consulting process
concurrently
Will I actually make money
Does promoting parts of it on my blog make me a schill
Questions
If anyone out there can help with these questions, I'd appreciate it:
Anyone out there buy Sams books? I haven't in years and I don't know
the rep these books have. Thoughts? Example of Similar Sams Book
Has anyone written for Sams?
Do they pay well
What are they like as a publisher?
Positive, Negative, Details?
Was it a good or bad omen when I dropped my review copy of "Cold
Fusion in 21 days" in the sink when shaving this morning?
Would you buy it?
Do people buy PHP books as opposed to using PHP.Net? I myself have a
bunch of PHP books but don't turn to them all that often.
There is something just plain addictive about walking into a bookstore
and seeing yourself on the shelf. That and once you've written one
book then there is just something about it. As Robert Heinlein once
remarked (and the quote is inexact) "No one likes writing but people
like having written". He was definitely correct about that.
Thoughts, feedback, comments strongly appreciated.
1To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub; Hamlet, Act 3,

doesn't give easily linkable results)
2Oh and if you're wondering why I put PHP on the title, with PHP being
the target audience I figured it would get this more attention (and
syndication to other sites) from the target audience
Can I write? I want to write. But I'm
afraid to write

CRM E-Mail
Update: Removing the Unique Tracking
Number from Subject Line of Microsoft
CRM E-Mail
12/02/2003 12:26 AMThis update addresses the E-mail tracking feature of the Microsoft
Business Solutions CRM v1.0 product. This feature provides the ability
to track e-mail correspondence by including a unique tracking number
that appears on the subject line of messages composed from within the
Microsoft CRM system.
When this update is applied to a Microsoft CRM implementation, the
administrator will have the ability to turn on or off the e-mail
tracking feature. If the e-mail tracking is turned off, the Microsoft
CRM system will no longer generate the unique tracking number. In
addition, this results in the loss of the Microsoft CRM system's
ability to automatically track incoming e-mail.

Why Mono is significant
Why Mono is significant
07/19/2004 11:20 AMMono is an open source implementation of the .Net development
framework as developed by Microsoft and submitted to the ECMA
standards authority. The project, which released version 1.0 last
month, is significant in several ways: it offers the potential to
unite the open source communities for Windows, Linux, and other
platforms; it fulfills the niche for a powerful migration tool; it
builds upon existing open source technologies such as Mozilla and
Apache; and -- most importantly -- it illustrates the resolve of the
open source community to rise to Microsoft's challenge.
