Main Street readers interested in a share of the risks and rewards of the self-publishing explosion will have to wait a while longer. The Wall Street Journal and other sources reported last week that Lulu Ltd, a privately-held self-publishing company based in Raleigh, North Carolina, that maintains the popular Lulu.com website, has postponed its $50 million initial public offering (IPO).

Lulu is the brainchild of Bob Young, co-founder of Red Hat Inc, the well-known open-source software company.
