Really Cool Idea

It's like a book club with the entire world. I came across this site while I was using www.stumbleupon.com to find new places.

The idea is, you register a book you no longer want (or want to share), and then you put some sort of thingie on the book so people know what to do with it. Then you "free" the book, by leaving it somewhere. Then, in theory, people will pick up the book, and hopefully get on the internet and register the book with the site. Then you can see where it went, and what people thought about it!

BookCrossing

I imagine a problem may be that an awful lot of these books get thrown away.

Me Want

This (very short) article talks a little about a long-term experiment to domesticate foxes. The result? Wicked. Cute. Kits.
