 preorder?

I have a feeling that bestwebbuys counts a "purchase" when you click on  
the referring "BUY" link to e.g. amazon, even if you don't buy the book at  
that site.

I just "bought" one recently :)

Hello Steven,

 I have a feeling that bestwebbuys counts a "purchase" when you click

In that case it's counting interest in books, not sales. That's a different 
but also interesting metric.

exactly how to we do this? There is not 'buy now' button.

ps will not Herb Sutter be  little upset that his book currently at no 
22(see below) has been outdone by a book that does not yet exist!

C++ Coding Standards: 101 Rules, Guidelines, and Best Practices
by Herb Sutter, Andrei Alexandrescu, Bjarne Stroustrup (Editor)

click cover - click a buy-button :)

or even better -> preorder the book!! (that would help more, since 
this 			  bestsellerlist will be uncovered ...)
