The publishing industry is changing in a major way. Although traditional publishing methods are highly regarded, they are also very costly and somewhat cumbersome.
After experiencing this personally with his book Attention! This Book Will Make You Money, Jim Kukral realized that he could do it just as easily himself. He even came up with an idea that uses crowdsourcing to pre-fund a series of books, which has raised over $ 20,000 up to this point.
Kukral told us that, while books and newspapers would always exist, self-publishing created opportunities for more people to get published.
How do you see self-publishing methods impacting the overall publishing industry?

WebProNews recently had the privilege of talking with Jason Citron, the CEO of OpenFeint, the popular social gaming platform for mobile devices. Both he and his company have been getting a lot of attention lately for a number of reasons.
For starters, OpenFeint recently sold to GREE, a Japanese mobile game company, for a whopping $ 104 million. Also, the company partnered with SEGA in an effort to promote cross platform connectivity. In addition, OpenFeint is bringing a product to the market called GameFeed that is similar to Facebook’s newsfeed but that enables gamers to easily share what’s happening in all their games with their friends.
Citron told us that OpenFeint wanted to bring “rich social interaction” to gaming.
