The Clean Industrial Revolution Book Signing And Social Media Experiment

There has been a lot of media attention about Ben McNeil’s ‘The Clean Revolution’ recently including  John Hewson’s article for the ABC’s Unleashed which attracted a large number of vocal comments.  Jeremy LeBard (from Booktagger) and I attended Ben’s book signing event at UNSW bookshop and in this impromptu conversation Jeremy talked to Ben about some of the things authors can do using social media channels:

What is next in this Social Media in Publishing Experiment? We would like to track the conversations people are having about the book — thanks to everyone who took part in the poll #CleanRev was the winner so  please add #CleanRev to your twitter stream conversations.
