Check out the new public SFWA newsgroup on SFF.net, SFWA SkunkWorks. It’s mission, basically, is to alert members to “new trends in SF publishing, even ‘bleeding edge’ trends that were experimental and hadn’t proven themselves one way or another.”

Already, I found something useful: according to Tobias Buckell, AmazonConnect now allows you to run your regular blog’s feed through AmazonConnect, which means you can blog as normal and still reap the benefits of Amazon blogging without the extra hassle. I can’t actually find the information about this that Toby’s talking about, but that could be because I don’t have AmazonConnect setup for myself yet, since I don’t have any books available on Amazon (as of yet).
