"would you rather I kept chapters off the web..."

Don't even joke -- not even for pretend. Ahhh.

I've read virtually everything on your site and also bought Hackers and Painters. A physical book is super convenient and it's an easy way for me to get new people to start reading your stuff, since many people don't like reading on the web.

The more new essays the better of course, but I would truly appreciate getting them when they're fresh baked and not waiting for the book (which I will order the second it's available). I say screw the people who don't appreciate and see the value in both versions.

My ultimate format preference would be a spoken "book on tape" version of all your essays. That'd be amazingly great fuel for my iPod and I'd happily pay iTunes-type prices.
