    Nobody pays me to write any of the copy on my blog, and should I ever have the good fortune that they do, I will declare it. My main employment is as the owner and principal of The Future Place consultancy. The Future Place provides two key services 1) training and services to industry and academic bodies and 2) consultancy services to companies. The details of the companies I work with are a private matter, but if I blog about any company who has paid The Future Place more than expenses recently (approx. two years) I will mention that they are a client. I hold equity in Virtual Surveys and provide consulting services to them from time to time. I am paid to run courses for a number of trade bodies and over the last few years clients have included ESOMAR, AMSRS, MRS, and MRIA.

Chris Andersons next book, 2008?

Chris Anderson, author of The Long Tail, has announced that he has sold the rights to his next book to Hyperion, but it will not be finished until mid-2008, to be published after that.

It looks as though Anderson will be focusing on one aspect of The Long Tail, namely the economics of ‘selling’ things that are Free. The title of the book is scheduled to be “Free”, and subtitles he is currently looking at include “How companies get rich by charging nothing” and “The economics of abundance and the marketplace without money”.

Anderson’s preferred subtitle “The past and future of a radical price” – strikes me as an attempt to be too clever.
