Thanks to [Mariana Eguaras](http://marianaeguaras.com/)
we are going to blogging about __digital publishing__,
its __characteristics, benefits and challenges__, as
well as __its relation with print publishing__ and how
these issues directly affect the necesary proceedings
for any kind of publishing.

We already have planned what we are going write in the
first entries, but any suggestion is welcome. As far as
possible the writing is not going to be technical and
more friendly to general public or publishers.

However, you have to consider that some technicalities
are now necessary for publishing. As well as the
typography, printing or design slangs are common 
knowledge for publishers, in the same way the jargons
from web or software developers are starting to be part
of our cultural background.
