"You only learn by doing"

Shelfari's Josh Hug (CEO), Dave Hanley (VP of Marketing) and David Nudo (Director of Sales & Marketing) are currently attending BookExpo America in Los Angeles.  Today, Hanley was speaking on a panel with author Scott Sigler and publisher Derek Powazek, discussing how the publishing industry is adapting to Web 2.0. 

Publisher's Weekly reports:

[Hanley] urged publishers to engage with their customers. He himself regularly interacts with Shelfari members, offering and receiving book recommendations. “Just get out there and do it,” he said. “You only learn by doing.” (full story)

If you see Josh, Dave or David at BEA--introduce yourself!
