Dead Girl's Blog: Two Short Tales of Zombie Horror

Dead Girl's Blog: Two Short Tales of Zombie Horror Review



Meet Audrey Scott. She has it all. She’s the most popular girl at Lincoln High and dates Tommy Barker, the cutest boy in the senior class. She has a credit card with no limit, is head cheerleader and was probably going to be homecoming queen again this year—until she was bitten by a Deader. Worst part of it? He ruined her best jeans.
But that’s just the tip of the putrid iceberg. Now, Audrey is beginning to fester. She doesn’t smell very fresh. Her hair comes out, along with pieces of scalp. Her friends no longer want to hang out with her. Tommy has moved on to a new girl.
And poor Audrey is suddenly wearing Depends and hanging with her lame younger sister, Cindy.
The world isn’t like it was. Disease is in the air and people have become infected. The dead are no longer buried because they won’t stay put in their graves. They are sent out to big, green pastures with electric fences, where they remain until they rot away to nothing.
Told in blog form, this short is an introduction to Diary of a Dead Girl, a darkly humorous young adult novel by Donna Burgess, scheduled for release in the second half of 2011.
Also included is the bonus short story, Under a Blanket of Blue, a Romero-inspired tale of zombies, love and survival.
Total e-book length: approx. 8700 words.

It's ALL on the Blog, DON'T Buy the Book

It's ALL on the Blog, DON'T Buy the Book Review



Let s face it...even if you really, really love a blog, there is almost no chance that you are going to go back and read months and months worth of material. It s just too difficult and not yet comfortable enough. This book is a response to customer demand. Or perhaps I should say, community demand? Jeremy, I really like your blog. How can I get caught up with your past posts? So, the idea of the "Blook" (blog + book = blook) summarizing the first year of post-Microsoft blogging was born. Although I had been blogging personally for 8 years and professionally for about 2.5, the year of leaving Microsoft, starting a business (in a recession), and trying to revolutionize the way marketing is done, was full of material that my wonderful editor, Mary Mygie Capina, and I thought would be a great primer for those trying to understand the radically changing future of marketing. So, here you go....enjoy! (Note: the term "blook" was introduced to me by Seth Godin while reading Small Is The New Big. I didn t invent it.) And when you are done, visit the actual blog at neverstopmarketing.com

Charkin Blog: The Archive

Charkin Blog: The Archive Review



'This is it. I am officially entering the blogosphere. This is not a Macmillan blog, but Macmillan will certainly feature heavily. The idea is that when we need to share anything from company strategy through news, to talk about new ideas or to help us learn from our successes and our mistakes, we can all blog about it here. This means no more email newsletters from me. Instead, you can read (and blog) all about it here. And don't forget to bookmark this page and to let colleagues know all about it. The broader the audience the more effective this blog becomes. And it becomes a lot more interesting if you join the conversation ...so don't be shy'. "The Charkin Blog" gave voice to Richard Charkin's many and varied opinions over the last two years of his time at Macmillan. Only time will tell whether it will go down in publishing history. Meanwhile this book offers readers a valuable record.

WordPress 3.0 jQuery

WordPress 3.0 jQuery Review



This book walks the reader from a basic overview and introduction to jQuery with illustrations of how it works with a WordPress site and then starts building enhancements that start off very simply and increase in dynamics as the book progresses. You'll start off with some simple CSS manipulation and move on to creating some sleek visual validation to your site's forms and by the end of the book use the UI plugin seamlessly within WordPress and create a custom rotating slide-show and incorporate AJAX techniques to your site. All the while showing you how to create these enhancements without "breaking up the work-flow" of the WordPress content editors. This book is for anyone who is interested in using jQuery with a WordPress site. It's assumed that most readers will be WordPress developers with a pretty good understanding of PHP or JavaScript programming and at the very least experienced with HTML/CSS development who want to learn how to quickly apply jQuery to their WordPress projects.

Internet: un trésor de nouveaux genres (blogs, forums) (German Edition)

Internet: un trésor de nouveaux genres (blogs, forums) (German Edition) Review



Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Französisch - Pädagogik, Didaktik, Sprachwiss., einseitig bedruckt, Note: 1,75, Universität des Saarlandes, 18 Eintragungen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Wohl kaum eine andere Kommunikationsform steht derzeit so stark im Mittelpunkt des multidisziplinären und wissenschaftlichen Interesses wie das Internet und seine Möglichkeiten. Schon zu Beginn des letzten Jahrhunderts erkannte H. Frei, dass das Aufkommen neuer kommunikativer Bedürfnisse wesentliche linguistische Veränderungen mit sich bringen würde. Diese Arbeit fokussiert nun eine dieser neuen Kommunikationsformen: den Weblog. Aufgrund der Fülle von Charakteristika dieser neuen Formen und verschiedenen Parallelen hinsichtlich der Analyse erscheint es der Autorin sinnvoll, exemplarisch anhand eines Typus der neu entstandenen Kommunikationsformen die charakteristischen Eigenschaften darzustellen und zu analysieren. Im Mittelpunkt dieser Arbeit soll nun einmal die linguistische Analyse von Blogs stehen, auf der anderen Seite aber auch immer wieder Bezug auf die Frage des Mündlichen und Schriftlichen genommen werden. Dabei sollen die auftretenden gattungskonstituierenden Elemente sowie Eckdaten der Entstehung von Blogs miteinbezogen werden, um zu einer vollständigen Betrachtung zu gelangen.
