Alternatives to Blurb Books

Seems like SmugMug isn't really in this business and also that one might get some traction from Blurb in terms of marketing. If you want to produce a book and have some hope of selling a few over the internet, are there any better alternatives than Blurb?

Thanks.
If not now, when?

    Look into Lulu. Their printing is much improved and their marketing tools are much better than Blurb's. Lulu makes it very easy to get your book on Amazon.com opening up more sales possibilities. I don't do a lot of books (calendars more often) but I did one this year through Lulu and was very satisfied. I still wish they had better paper choices but I also wanted to keep the cost down, as this last one was just a book for my own use.

    Hope this helps.

    I've used Shutterfly. I mainly use them because of the die-cut window leather covers instead of those printwrap covers. You can get some good deals through them as well.
