Well we launched last Monday … and have picked up a few little bits of coverage :) I’ll summarise them below, starting with the national press!

The Telegraph (17th May – Saturday – joint pre-launch double exclusive), with the Financial Times on the same day. Good coverage in both, and I thought the Telegraph gave a good overall context.

Guardian Unlimited – BookRabbit elevator pitch – so online only and [warning] big picture of me, but quite a fun piece to do, love to get in the print edition…

Shiny Shiny – wonderful web coverage from Shiny Shiny, they even uploaded a bookcase and tried it. Stuff TV, good bit of pre-launch coverage based on the event invite and a word with us.

On the more techie side we have:

TechRadar - the journalist from there was just great :)
Computer Active
What PC?
PC Magazine
Personal Computer World
PC Advisor

Our friends at The Bookseller, BookTrade.info

Really, really detailed write up from the guys at e-consultancy who then set a good trend for comparing us with Last.fm the GoodWebGuide love that one too :) TechCrunch coverage (which now means we’re a real dotcom).

Finally, but by no means least of course, a selection of blogs:
Random Distractions
The Bookling
& Satellites

Phew.

I also very much liked the editorial sign off in The Bookseller this week which discussed Amazon and then said:

“Monopolies don’t last forever. [something about Play & Tesco]… and fresh-thinking rivals such as BookRabbit.com- which combines social networking tools with low prices- are springing up. They may not make an immediate dent in Amazon, but watch this space.”
