Launching Naked Conversations

 

Barnes & Noble Amazon.com 2006-01-21: The Naked Conversations Launch Party.  To celebrate the publication of Naked Conversations, a launch party was held in Medina, Washington, an interesting community along the shores of Lake Washington, convenient to Redmond (the East Side) and Seattle (the West Side). This represented a major culmination of the journey that Robert Scoble and co-author Shel Israel began during the U.S. Thanksgiving Weekend of November, 2004.

It was thrilling to watch the book unfold on the Naked Conversations (née Red Couch) blog site.  Part of the reward for me was being able to observe how the authors developed and expanded their collaboration over time, starting with Scoble's brash initiation.  The book points out that the interviews on the blog are sometimes lengthier than those retained in the book.
