“Learning from Obama” Links, Shout-Outs and Excerpts
August 18th, 2009
Well, that little “Learning from Obama” e-book‘s been out for a little over a week now, so how’s it going? First off, thanks to everybody who’s helped spread the word — from Facebook to Gmail to the blogs, traffic’s been coming in from all directions, and as of 5 a.m. today the PDF been downloaded over 1000 times. Nice! PoliticsOnline and Frogloop have gone particularly above and beyond, with Phil Noble and and crew running a mention in their much-read e-newsletter last week, plus slapping a big “download” button on their frontpage (Phil also had a starring role in the press release). The Frogloop folks hopped firmly on board as well, running an extended excerpt from the chapter on email fundraising and promoting it out to their readers.
But wait, there’s more! Mad props to the following blogs, who’ve all linked over since the launch:
