The Walking Dead series has gone from strength to strength since the release of the original comic book. The comics that are now on volume 14 see the main character Rick Grimes go from professional police officer to survivor in a world infested with zombies.

How the world’s population died and became zombies has still not been fully explained, and Rick simply wakes up after being in a coma to find that his hometown has turned into a fight for survival against all of his old friends and neighbours. The originality of the comic books is undoubtedly the reason for the success of the series, and there’s still more to come.

Comic books are very popular today, and people are much less embarrassed of reading them. Because of this The Walking Dead series has been able to reach out to many readers that would usually dismiss it.

The comics have no colour within their pages, that is because the series is about true survival and it brings a gritty realism to the entire story as you read it. It is because of the sense of realism that readers get when they read this series that it has been able to make such an impact on people, to the point where it is now also a major television series.

The Walking Dead TV series follows the story of Rick Grimes, a wounded policeman who wakes up from a coma with his life turned upside down. The Television shows introduce new concepts to the Walking Dead universe, such as a crazed criminal out for revenge, and a scientist who want to take Rick with him to the grave.

Underneath all of the gore that the television series has there are the same underlying themes as the comics, the gritty realism and the genuine fear of not waking up in the morning if the zombies find you in the night.

Other zombie films, games and comics are filled with the protagonists fight to uncover what happened to the world they live in, and how can they stop the virus outbreak. This inevitably leads to a conclusion and ending of the game, book, or film.

One constant in the comic series is that path of Rick and his son, even if they are separated from the rest of the group they are together with each other, bringing s strong family value into the books.

The Walking Dead series is gaining further momentum as it goes on, with the comic books gaining more and more fans thanks to the TV show, which is now on its second season.

A recent App for the brand gives fans the ability to try and predict how many zombies each character will kill in the next TV episode, which is both a gruesome and addictive past-time.

The Kindle reader has been a fantastic product for Amazon since it was first released in November of 2007. Amazon’s strong association with both electronics and books made the Kindle the ideal product for them and, after an upgrade to the Kindle 2.0 in February of 2009, followed by the launch of the large format DX model in the summer of the same year, it went on to become the number one selling product on the Amazon site.

Over the festive period of 2009, the Kindle became Amazon’s most gifted product ever. On Christmas day of 2009, Amazon sold more Kindle books than physical volumes for the first time ever. Admittedly this was probably due to people who had received a Kindle as a Christmas gift testing it out by downloading a Kindle book or two – but it was a landmark event for Amazon and the Kindle nonetheless.

Despite the huge success of the Kindle reader, there were times when Amazon appeared to be a somewhat reluctant manufacturer. They went to a great deal of trouble to make sure that Kindle books could be read on a wide variety of different devices by people who didn’t own Kindles. Currently there are free Kindle “Apps” for the PC, the Mac, the iPod Touch, the iPhone, the new iPad, the Blackberry and any device running Android. At times, Amazon looked to be in competition with itself.

However, with the release of the Apple iPad, the method in Amazon’s apparent madness became clear. The launch of the iPad produced a downward trend in the prices of e-book readers as Apple fans rushed to get their hands on the new iPad. On the other hand, e-book prices started to edge upwards.

The main reason behind this was the deal which Apple had negotiated with the big publishing houses prior to the iPad’s launch. This allowed publishers to fix the price for the e-book versions of their publications at whatever level they wished – just so long as the e-book wasn’t offered at a lower price for any other reader – the Kindle for example. Amazon’s strategy of selling all e-books for $ 9.99 or less was pretty well destroyed overnight – and it started to look as if the iPad was not only a “Kindle Killer” but was going to mess up Amazon’s plans for e-book sales into the bargain.

A more considered analysis of the situation reveals that Amazon’s release of Kindle Apps for so many different devices was nothing short of inspired. Each App is actually an outlet for Kindle books – and with a higher average e-book price, Amazon will be able to sell Kindles for less but still make money over the lifetime of the reader by selling their Kindle books at higher prices. Even if the iPad were to wipe out Kindle sales completely – an unlikely event – Kindle books will continue to sell. And if another reader or tablet computer comes along there will, no doubt, be an “app for that” as well.

Press releases have been around as long as the media has been in operation. Magazine and newspaper editors from publications all over the world receive many thousands of pieces of information daily and they then choose the information most relevant/ newsworthy to their publications needs for that day. The internet has changed and is changing the face of journalism as the online press release is here and making a massive impact on the online and offline publishing world.

Write your press release about something interesting. If you are intent on doing nothing more than writing a sales pitch for your product, you are missing the point. Nobody likes to be sold to so make sure that you research the current trends in your industry and make a point that people will be genuinely interested to read about. If you were the editor, don’t you think that you would be a little tired of hearing the same old rubbish all the time?

Press releases can end up being syndicated. This means that other services pick up the news from a master authority site or feed. This is really useful for you as you can reduce the amount of work done by sending your press release out to the best sites and then other sites will pick up that information from them. A word of warning though, the authority sites are very picky about the content that they accept. Make sure your release is genuine and will interest readers.

Content in a brief document is really important. Start by writing a compelling headline that people will read. How to is always a good way to start a headline as is something like, the secret of. A headline should entice the reader to know more about the article being written and should also include your main keyword phrase. This is a sneaky way of getting additional search engine juice to your fast improving website.

A press release should be around the 300 word mark. Making it longer than this will mean that it will probably get edited and shorter will mean that it gets thrown out as being too lightweight. A seies of small paragraphs makes for easy reading and the editor will feel that he doesn’t need to waste his time with the content and will often publish it in full as long as it of interest to his readership.
