From long tail to best seller in one easy post!
At 10:17am this morning, John posted to his blog that his book (The Search: The Inside Story of How Google and Its Rivals Changed Everything) was available for pre-order on Amazon.com and had a Sales Rank of "around 409,000."
Then the comments on that post started to document its quick rise: At 2:12pm it was up to #5437, 2:50pm #1347, 3:51pm #934, a check prior to this post #706, and a final check right now before posting has it up to #606 !!!
I am now off to pre-order my copy before they run out! :-D
