The people we've been giving copies of The Big Moo to have been enjoying it so far. I always try to warn the less markety-types (read: programmers) that it can come off as a bit cheesy. But, they usually surprise (more at first, now I'm not so surprised) by saying they like it after they start reading it.
It's pretty fun explaining the book to someone new as a group 'cause other people who've read it can bust out with good summaries. It's like I don't have to do any work evangelizing it at all. The ideas in it have nice viral qualities in that respect.
Along those lines, we were joking around at Kim Phung the other day about writing out own sort of half-parody book. Someone suggested the title The Big Bleat. We'll see what happens: it'd be a fun little PDF.
I came up with our first pithy-"remarkablize!" statement last night: "to make money, you have to make change."
