Overcoming new business venture challenges

on 04/24/2013
Excerpt: 24th April 2013 by Melissa Although MOO’s been around for a while, we have a lot of empathy for companies starting out and launching new ventures. When it came to the MOO Shop, we were somewhat newbies ourselves – MOO’s never had a bricks & mortar retail shop before! It’s been a challenging (but fun, of course) experience, and since we’ve been sharing our startup business advice on starting up a business and overcoming challenges, here’s a few things we’ve learned along the way. If you haven’t been lucky enough to come visit the MOO Shop, you might not know, but… BOXPARK is made out of shipping containers! Yup, we’ve literally set up a store in a box, and a small one at that.... read the full post.

From Printing Press to API: Book Publishers’ Revolutionary Tools
blog.programmableweb.com
on 03/11/2013
Excerpt: Before 1500, monks spent their lives copying the Bible by hand. That method was replaced by printing presses for the next 500 years. Today, ebooks are set to end the practice of pulping trees and smearing them with ink. In all this change the direction of information access has been constant for half a millennium: faster and faster, easier and easier. The next revolution for publishers is APIs for books. Hugh McGuire, writing on the site for the publisher O’Reilly gently spells out a new job description for an audience of professionals who were only a few years ago still relying on pen and parchment for editing. (As a publisher myself, I mean no insult; McGuire’s nontechnical argument is appropriately aimed and skillfully done.... read the full post.

A Publisher’s Job Is to Provide a Good API for Books
toc.oreilly.com
on 02/01/2013
Excerpt: Here is a radical statement: A publisher’s job is to provide good APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) for their books. Now that almost all books are made into digital products (that is, ebooks), good publishers of the future will be the ones who provide great APIs. In this article I am going to explore:
why I think publishers must provide good APIs
why this is actually much easier and less scary than you might think
why the old-fashioned book index should be the starting point for book APIs
An API is a set of tools/protocols that allow different bits of software to communicate with each other, under defined conditions.... read the full post.
