For a quick and entertaining read about online world domination, check out 279 Days to Overnight Success. This is Chris Guillebeau’s free ebook for “bloggers, writers, online artists, and anyone otherwise interested in creating a new career or expanding their influence using social media.”
It’s about how he became a full time writer in 279 days, a very short period of time for overnight success, which generally takes years.
As his blog is called “The Art of Nonconformity,” you’ll find that his ebook has a different style from most ebooks about blogging. You might even enjoy reading it if you’re not interested in blogging.
I’ve just recently come across his site, but he seems like an interesting guy. One interesting thing about him: his personal quest to visit every country in the world before he turns 35 in 2012 (he’s been to 111 out of 197 so far).

279 Days to Overnight Success is a very interesting read. This is a book about the author’s personal journey to blogging success and there’re many practical tips provided for any blogger who wants to achieve what he has achieved. Just like his blog, which is about living a non-conformity life; his eBook on blogging is just as unconventional from other blogging eBooks. It’s certainly worth a read. It’s free, and it doesn’t even require your email for an exchange.
Cheers~
