Plagiarism Today: Review: Managing Online Forums

    Hey Jonathan,

    Thanks so much for the review. :) And for your help with the book. I'm glad that you liked it.

    I think that the book will be valuable, as a whole (for the most part) to both new and experienced admins. There are issues talked about in chapter 2 and 3 that many experienced administrations will not have known. And then, others will have. But, different people will take different things from it.

    The content is not focused toward novice admins, but toward completeness. I covered everything I could possibly think of. On some level, that may comes off as being focused on beginners because I cover everything from start to finish, but really my focus was completeness and not novice or experienced.

    Thanks again. :)

    Patrick: I do agree it is a book that anyone can use, I think I said that a few times above, but anytime you make a book that is complete people that know large parts of what you're talking about will get less from it than those who know nothing. Completeness often seems to mean that it is geared, at least somewhat, for novices.

    There's nothing wrong with that. Of course.

    Thank you very much for dropping by!

    Jonathan, I am not able to access the book through the link given. I wish to purchase one copy. How can you help?

    Hey Recording Studio,

    On the link Jonathan gave, there is a "Buy Now!" graphic that will take you to a page with store links. Or, if you prefer, you can just go to your favorite online bookseller (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books a Million, Powell's, etc.) or, if you have one near you, a Barnes & Noble location.

    Thanks so much for wanting to pick up a copy. I really appreciate it.

    Both the links give "the server not found" message. Shall buy it off Amazon. Thanks.

    Weird stuff, but thanks for buying it! :)

    RS & Patrick: Glad it got sorted out.

    Jonathan, I finally gave up! Amazon regretted its inability to send the book to the country of my residence! I can not figure out why! Just about every instituitional investor in the world is beating a straight line here, but Amazon's suppliers do not want to send! Amazon themselves have sent a number of books earlier to me and are willing to send two other books that I wanted, but not this one!

    Hey Recording Studio,

    You purchased a copy directly from Amazon.com and they won't send it? :( Would you be able to e-mail me with your country and any important details? patrick@ifroggy.com is my e-mail. I want to find a way to get you the book. Sorry for the trouble. Thanks!

    RS & Patrick: I've had international issues with Amazon as well. Let me ask though, is there a local Amazon site to you RS? I know that there is amazon.co.uk for those in England. Is there one for your country?
  • Recording Studio · 1 year ago
    Unfortunately not. The problem however is not with Amazon. I have got a lot of other books from them in the past. The problem is with the sources for this particular book. Anyway, I have now asked a friend coming from the US to get a copy for me. Thanks for the concern.

    RS: A great solution. Though I am rather sad you couldn't get it off the Web, I think that's a great workaround.
