That's right people the time has finally come.  Blog Design Solutions will be released on February 20th; now is your time to pre-order your shiny copy.  Andy Budd, Simon Collison, Michael Heilemann, John Oxton, David Powers, Rich Rutter, Phil Sherry and I worked pretty hard to craft this into a useful book.  Let us know if we succeeded.

From the publishers site:

In this book, a team of renowned web designers take you through the ins and outs of putting together great blogs. They waste no time harking on about the philosophy of blogs, or the community behind them. Instead, they get straight to the practical details, showing how to set up a basic blog in some of the world's most popular blogging engines – Movable Type, ExpressionEngine, WordPress, and Textpattern.

That's right, you heard it here first... I am a 'renowned' web designer!  Another phrase for the ol' resume.

Help a brother out, my baby needs... stuff.
