Sign up now at dotnetbookclub.org and you can preview chapters from Alex Homer's book ASP.NET 1.1 Insider Solutions, due out in June, in its raw format. There are discussions attached to each chapter for you to give your feedback of the work. Thanks to Amy and SAMS publishing for providing the content.

One of the issues I have heard from people and the idea of having a "Book Club" is the lack of time to actually read the books, or the lack of interest in the books themselves. Well the "Book of the Month" is not all I hope to provide. I also think it is important to post a book reviews from the members have previously read a particular book. Along with this, I am working on discounts from some book publishers.

Now that the site has some content, I am working on a plan to get User Group adoption with the program. Once formulated, I will post the techniques I have tried with my User Group in Kansas City. If you want to suggest this to your user group, please email me at jjulian@dotnetbookclub.org and I will get you in the loop with my techniques of adoption.

It is free to sign up and no pressure to actually participate in the "Book of the Month" portion of the site. So go sign up and lets start reading. If you have any suggestion about what you would like to see done with the site, please email suggestions@dotnetbookclub.org.

Jeff, will this be only limited to .NET books?

Well .NET is a lot of things, I don't see us reading Java books, but object-oritentation, service-oriented, methodology, etc books all deal with .NET developement practices.
