Happy New Year - Narrowing of Focus

First Happy New Year to you all! I hope 2005 proves to be prosperous to us all and for the ebook industry in general.

I am going to be narrowing the focus here at ePublishing Blog back to covering information about publishing ebooks. This is information that is mainly of interest to self publishing authors and small ebook publishers. So ePublishing blog is not going away, I'm just narrowing the focus back to where I started which was trying to figure out the confusing array of formats and readers for e-publishing. Hopefully, the Open Reader Consortium's format will become so popular in 2005 - 2006 that it will make that mission redundant.

I will be covering ebooks from a reader/end consumer standpoint over at my other blog on eBooks on Web Index. I hate to split things up, but I need to keep a reasonably steady flow of posts on BOWIndex just to keep things alive. BOWIndex has both a directory of ebooks and POD books but also a blog - and it was always intended to be a place that readers could go and find out about ebooks plus find self published books themselves. I have to keep working toward making that a reality and keeping fresh posts over there is a part of that.
