I finished making my first blog book in late December. It arrived here on January 6, 2011.
The software I used to make the book was from blurb.com. My friend Jaclyn uses this website as well. I asked her for some help on how to use it. The book looks pretty good, but I realize that the front cover wasn't completely readable, because the colors I put on the title were to dark. It was only to dark, because of the picture I chose for the front. If I order another one of the same book I will have already changed the color, so that won't happen again.
Here is what the front of the book looks like.

If anyone wants me to make them a book of their own from their blog, I can do that. I can also make orders of my book for others too. I thought my in-laws might want one There are 3 types of books you can have paperback that has to be 80 pages minimum, hardback with sleeves, or just a hardback book which I chose to do. I don't think that the hardbacks have a specific number of pages you have to have. I waited to print my book from blurb so that I would get a good coupon. I got 15% off this time around.
I'm thinking about wiping out the posts that I have already put into a book. How does that sound to everyone?

Tricia! A blog book looks like so much fun! I have debated on doing one or just taking the text and pictures, copying them, printing them out and putting them into a scrap book. Either way it's another project added to my list. :p
Your book looks great!I bet you guys are enjoying it. :)
I love it!
That is so cool, Tricia!
Congratulations on finishing a blub book. I am very behind in my scrapbooking and am looking into doing a blurb book.
.... but then I'd have to redo the digital scrapbook pages I've already compleated.
My best friend did a blurb book of her blog. It's really cool.
