Kevin Kelly, one of the founders of Wired has reissued one of his first books New Rules for the New Economy as a RSS feed.
While you won't always agree with what he says, this and other books such as Out of Control: The New Biology of Machines are always thought provoking.
He's always said that the print additions were merely a first step in publishing and would republish them in new formats as they emerge.
Kelly has already republished them as PDF's and sees RSS as the next step as it will allow people to comment on specific sections of the book.
This is certainly a very interesting concept as it allows both the author and reader to have an almost realtime interaction that only a couple of years ago would have been impossible
His post explaining this in more detail is New, New Rules for the New, New Economy
