David Carr of the New York Times is getting lots of attention for his memoir of addiction, Night of the Gun, but what’s really impressed me is his new book-promo Web site. It is, simply, a game-changer, one that exploits the multimedia possibilities of the Web to become a thing in and of itself. It’s a big wow. And I realize with a shudder that by the time I finish my next big nonfiction book (in a couple of years, let’s hope), I’ll have my Web work cut out for me.
