Maybe I've been going about asking the wrong way..

What's the next LifeHacker book project after this one? Is there a
series planned, or will future books go in new directions?

I'm asking in part because I wonder if there would be opportunities
for others to work in a more formal capacity on the book outside of
the forum, for example, or if single authorship is preferred.
