Daily Beast Aims to Publish Books, And Fast

Seeing an opportunity in the book industry’s traditionally slow publishing timetable, the founder of news aggregation site The Daily Beast wants to accelerate the process.

From New York Times writer Motoko Rich:

In a joint venture with Perseus Books Group, The Daily Beast is forming a new imprint, Beast Books, that will focus on publishing timely titles by Daily Beast writers — first as e-books, and then as paperbacks on a much shorter schedule than traditional books.
