Somewhat related to this weird idea that things have more cache once they land on paper -- did you ever hear about The Printed Blog? Literally a compliation of "the best in blogs" put into a pdf and printed out. Oh, but it failed within months. Um, yeah. PS: People of WalMart almost made me cry.

We've sold almost 80 copies to date of the "Stuff White People Like" book. It was on our bestseller list 2 months in a row. We also sold out of "FU Penguin" the day we got it in.
