Flickr Alternative Book Cover Contest
Talk about good timing! Just as we go into the week where we're discussing Flickr, I get the green light from my publisher (Information Today) to start the Flickr Alternative Book Cover Contest to promote my book! Since many of you are going to be trying out Flickr this week and I know many of you have a very creative bent, I thought you might be interested in entering. Here's the info:
What do you think the cover of a book called Social Software in Libraries should look like? Create an alternative cover for the book and add it to this group. The people with the three best (most original, most on-topic, most artistic, or funniest!) covers will each receive a signed copy of the book Social Software in Libraries: Building Collaboration, Communication and Community Online by Meredith G. Farkas. The winners will be announced at the Computers in Libraries conference (April 16-18), but you don’t have to be there to win.
You'll have to join the group before you add anything to it, but it's totally open to anyone who wants to join (not just librarians!).

This is a great idea
This is a great idea Meredith! And the cover you have now looks great. I am really excited because I got to design the cover for my book, Web 2.0 for Librarians and Information Professionals, and graphic design is one of my hobbies. My book will be announced in the next Neal-Schuman catalog, but if you get a chance, please check it out and tell me what you think, I've posted it on my blog here: http://infotangle.blogsome.com/2007/03/05/web-20-for-librarians-and-information-professionals/
