Socialite Rank Book in 2008?

socialite-rank.jpg

Socialite Rank, the website whose chief claim to fame was its status as a regular object of Gawker scorn, announced on its one-year anniversary this morning that the whole thing was research for a book, tentatively titled The Year of the Rank, “that would definitively showcase the inner workings of New York’s 10021 world.” This self-described “honest, glamorous and definitive depiction of the modern Gotham society and the website that turned it upside down” is hyped as coming out in February 2008, but there’s no information given—or found in a quick and dirty Google search—about any publisher actually acquiring such a book. Of course, the first thing any competent publisher would tell the authors is that there’s no way in hell they’re putting out a book called The Year of the Rank, so maybe that’s the problem.

Still, if you’ve seen a proposal floating around, by all means, let us have a peek.
