Talk:Processed Book Project

This is a quick response, copied from the held desk thread, about the notability of the Processed Book Project Article:

About the question of the notability of the article--a brief and incomplete answer. The article is not intended as an advertisement but was posted because I think the ideas are important. If you Google <"processed book"+Esposito>, the 200+ hits indicate that the project and the FirstMonday article are starting to appear on the radar screen. I do know Esposito but do believe he is articulating in a new and different way how authored content of the future will more resemble the Wikipedia than the traditional books or articles we have known in the past. I will try to say more under User_talk soon. CML

A footnote to all of the above: "Processed Book Project"--both the article and this discussion thread on the help desk page--now show up in a Google general search (as of December 29, 2005), I suppose because the idea was already on Google's radar, which may also be an indication of its notability.

Finally, encourage readers who have questions about the article's relevance to check out the FirstMonday article and the Project site. CML
