Ask Indies is live!

Posted by paige on Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 12:14pm

Ask Indies is a collaborative project by indie booksellers on Twitter, designed to use their expert knowledge to help you find books. Ask a question about books, and booksellers will respond with recommendations, ideas, and opinions.

Any Twitter user can publicly ask booksellers a question by coding a post with the hashtag #askindies.

Every book page on IndieBound.org now has an Ask Indies button which links to a Twitter formhere's an example. The book's URL and the #askindies hashtag are automatically entered for you. You can tweet your question directly from the site.

Of course, you can also use the #askindies hashtag wherever you post to Twitter -- through Twitter.com, or a desktop or phone client.

Follow all the #AskIndies action here on IndieBound or follow the Ask Indies account on Twitter.
