...right. A different editorial method will engage a very different set of literary values. Imagine a world where publishing has two centers rather than one: a conventional literary center, governed by mainstream publishing - with its big names and fancy prizes and high-end art direction - and a new one where books rise to fame and prominence YouTube-style, in the rough and tumble of the great Web 2.0 mosh pit.

Driving between such major cities as Miami and Tampa is a back-numbing haul; flying between them, especially at the exorbitant fares many airlines charge, often seems impractical.
