Turn Your Blog into a Book

I usually ignore the messages in the right-hand column of the Blogger dashboard, but today one caught my eye:

Turn your blog into a book!
Blog2Print from SharedBook turns your blog into a soft cover or hard cover book. You pick the cover, add an optional dedication, then preview and you're done. Prices start at $14.95.

Looks like it only works with Blogger blogs. A 20-page softcover book is $14.95, hardcover $24.95. Extra pages are 35 cents each. I previewed a book from this blog with 47 posts and the cost was $24.95 for the softcover book. They also offer a PDF version for $7.95.

May be interesting for those who are blogging to keep a record of their experiences. Other options include:

Blur: Blog Books - Blogger, LiveJournal, TypePad, and WordPress

I noticed that too and thought that it may be a nice thing to do one day... not expensive...

I think it is a great idea to consider, Natalie. Your blog is entertaining and informative. One of my favorite French blog writers just published a "blog" book and is now touring/booksigning in the US with her winemaking husband.
