That was fast. Awesome, eagle.
Now we need a web page. It can be simple but it needs to have the aesthetics and professional appearance that this books deserves.
Last time I created a small page I did it with iWeb. 
I had a quick look on the Interwebs but I did not find any good and free web page WYSIWIG tools. Maybe Google's Web Designer will do?
 Who knows a decent free web page builder?
Who has some competence in (web) design? |

I have Pelican installed on my server, and if someone wants to build a Pelican site for this, I can deploy it. I don't have time right now because I'm moving, but we can do something simple.
If we want to use something like what I did for previous.unixdude.net, I can copy that site too.

Luciano already has a website, which promotes his book - see
https://www.1000bit.it/books/nextbook.asp
And the contents of the website is in english language:
https://www.1000bit.it
It should be no problem to add a page for the international edition of the book in english...

| May be another option. I asked him if he has a web space which he declined. |

An English version of the web page is online at https://www.1000bit.it/books/nextbook.asp. The language is chosen based on visitor's IP.
eagle: I guess we do not need your web space for now. Thanks again.
Let's refer friends and family to the book's web page in order to get more subscribers. |

Wow, so excited! Can't wait to get that.
I love my copy of "Digital Retro," and now I'll have a book dedicated to the NeXT too!
