The book is more of a do-it-yourself visual guide to using the Feeds Module. It covers importing content using Feeds, manipulating content while importing using Feeds Tamper Module.
Drupal Statcounter Module
I use StatCounter on one of my content sites www.gusagusa.com. With so much of traffic from search engines, the guy who maintains the website suggested that we show the incoming search terms on the pages of the site, so as to show the keywords on the site.
