There is not enough there to comment on. Perhaps a sample of the final result would help. I generally ignore most personal finance material I come across on the web so I suspect you would have to do a very good job to get my attention.

However I am curious about the kind of tools and organizational system you plan to use in the production of your product. E.g. things like http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=104348

Thanks. We just happen to be starting with Personal Finance, in general, would you buy a real book that happens to be an anthology of the top blog posts from your favorite topic?

And if you're a blogger, would you be willing to participate if we were putting out an anthology in your niche?

Lumifi looks interesting, looking into it now.

The only blog I like that touches on finance is http://www.winterspeak.com and unfortunately it has been inactive for the past few months (Zimran where did you go?).

My taste in anthologies tends towards collections of academic papers selected by an expert in the field - things like "Readings in Database Systems"[1]. I would certainly be interested in stuff of similar quality.

I'm not a blogger - I just stay in the peanut gallery. One of these days I may try to self-publish some stuff from our internal wiki at work using something like http://www.lulu.com/ which is why I'm curious about what you're doing.

To be honest, I would probably just read another blog post with the title "top ten finance blog posts" or something like that.

Of course there is value in selection, but BOOKS?
