This is an excellent landing page for a technical book. I haven't seen this style before, but the code snippet and details for each chapter gave me a good idea not just of the book's content, but of its emphasis and assumptions.<p>It suggested that this was a book about solving practical problems (e.g. all the bullet points about file formats, integration points like databases/Twitter/IRC, visualisation), assuming some Haskell knowledge (little time spent on Haskell concepts) but little machine learning knowledge (bullets showed elementary topics like MD5 alongside more advanced topics like perceptual hashing).<p>Based on this landing page, I bought the book; I probably would not have done so based only on the title and a synopsis.
