WLW Plugin: Book Info Lookup
Posted by Justin

I have created my second plugin for Windows Live Writer which is a tool that will do information lookups via the Amazon.com web service.  This is particularly useful if you want to post about a book you are writing.  The "insert" includes the ability to add the title, author, book image, and a link to the book itself on Amazon if you want to read more about it or simply buy it.

It looks like this:

Naked Conversations: How Blogs are Changing the Way Businesses Talk with Customers
by Robert Scoble, Shel Israel

Read more about this title...

 

You can simply search for a title or author and you are presented with the results from which you can select the one you are looking for.

If you are interested in this plugin, check out the Windows Live Writer Plugin Project over at CodePlex and find other plugins as well.

Justin,

Great plugin.  Thanks for sharing it.  It would be even better if I could add my associates id to the link that's created.  Any thoughts on adding this capability?

Thanks.

Will

Thanks Will!  That wouldn't be too hard to add ... I haven't had much time to do any development lately, but with the holidays around the corner, I'll see what I can do.  Keep your eyes peeled for an update!  -JB

Hi Justin,
I second that suggestion. Being able to have ones Associate ID embedded in there is somewhat important. That's the main reason the majority of people take the time to link to books on Amazon.
Would love to see this feature added.

Regards,
Jonathan

When you are trying to discover that special someone, you need to have some idea about the <A href="...yonlinedatingagency.com">dating rules</A>. Never let your loved ones or relatives be <A href="www.easyonlinedatingagency.com">matchmakers</A>, evern though their intentions are usually good- they do not have your taste. With internet dating as popular as it is, it's easy to locate a <A href="...asyonlinedatingagency.com">free online dating service</A>. There's more than a fair share of sites out there to keep you occupied for a long time. When setting up your online profile, be sure that you use a recent photo, there's nothing more dishonest and misleading than using pictures that is 15+ yrs old, that you no longer look anything like (and probably a couple pounds heavier as well).
