OT - I just found the coolest thing!

Post by Samuel'sMommy » Thu Jul 24, 2008 7:39 pm

This is completely off topic but I wanted to share my new discovery. Some of you may already be familiar with this but I just found a cool website called http://www.blurb.com I've seen digital photo albums from companies like snapfish, creative memories, etc before where you design your book and then they print it and bind it. Blurb does the same thing, but one really cool feature is that you can import your blog, choose the posts that you want to include, and then create a book from them. So, I decided that at the end of each school year, I can take all the weekly updates I post on my blog and create a book in Blurb as a record for my son. Isn't that cool? And, it's not that expensive. A 40 page softcover book starts at only $12.95 which is a lot cheaper than other books I've seen. Check it out!
