From a Publishers Weekly:

Safari Books Online, a California-based company that provides business and technology reference resources [O’Reilly media + Pearson Technology Group- dw], has launched Short Cuts, a series of brief works about emerging technologies not yet worthy of book-length treatment. The service, which complements the company’s Rough Cuts program allowing readers to offer feedback on manuscripts not yet completed (PW Daily, Mar. 13 ), will be included in the subscription to Safari’s online reference service. That service grants access to more than 4,000 titles by leading technology and business publishers. According to Safari’s v-p of marketing, Debra Woods, the Short Cuts program is part of a larger move by the company to bring more of its content online. “The introduction of Short Cuts builds on an emerging trend here at Safari Books Online to move our service beyond books…. [We are] embracing new formats like Short Cuts and Rough Cuts-products custom designed for the online medium.”
