Enjoyed this Podcast - I am a recently new listener and have found these helpful. As a fairly new Drupal Admin I think I would benefit from the content in this book.

Thanks for the great info!

Just found this :) I saw your presentation in Paris. But I only just subscribed (interview with Crelll!!) I've been a long time user of Drupal, but I'm kind of the permanent beginner. Just started following on twitter and saw if I post here I can enter to win win win!

I'd love to read this book. I'm getting into Drupal consulting more, and people are really keen on SEO stuff.

Casually commenting in lieu of potential free stuff. I would like to read this book. If I get my Packt review done of the JQuery book, maybe they'll send me one...? :)

Thanks for the great show, informative show. I've already put to use some of the SEO tips I've learned. Keep up the great work. Hopefully I'll meet you guys at the next FL meet up (I'm in St. Pete)

Being new to Drupal, I've been checking out all of your podcasts and learning much. This one is particularly useful as I've been looking at ways to beef up SEO.

Thanks!

PS: I like the newly-coined "book-a-ways". :-)
