A few days ago, in our post on "extreme publishing," we mentioned that the internet can take on an extra-crucial role in allowing authors to continue the story after a book is published, particularly when that story is ongoing, like the current financial crisis. Thus we're happy to announce that after we "extreme publish" Richard Posner's upcoming book detailing the causes and direction of the "descent into depression," we hope to send you over to the website of the venerable Atlantic, where Judge Posner will continue to provide analysis and commentary on the themes outlined in the book on a blog called "A Failure of Capitalism." The blog kicks off May 1, by which time you should be able to get your hands on the book. Don't just stand idly by, either; part of the blog will be devoted to answering reader-submitted questions.
