(2011-01-29) Ted Thin Books

TED is branching into the Thin Book/EBook market. A TEDBook will be longer than a long magazine article but shorter than a typical book, clocking in at 10,000 to 20,000 words, “in a way that matches modern attention spans,” the publisher said. Each book will be sold for $2.99 only on Amazon.com (Kindle Single)... Chris Anderson said that Amazon takes a 30 percent cut of revenue and the rest is split evenly between TED and the author.
