The Stew’s first book, Eureka, is currently nominated for a 2010 Golden Geek Award for Best Supplement, which is crazy awesome for a book with barely a quarter of sales under its belt. Voting for the awards closes 10/31, and if you haven’t voted for Eureka already I’d like to ask you to take a couple of minutes and do just that. Here’s how it works.

And it feels totally different than working on a solo blog: There’s just no substitute for being part of a killer team.
