I don’t know who invented it, but I would like to shake their hand. Its like a dream come true: here’s a database that can find any book in the world, and no matter where it is located, a copy will be sent to you, free of charge, and you can keep it for 3 months.
Currently waiting for:
- The Unwanted Gaze: The Destruction of Privacy in America
- The Future of the Internet and How to Stop It
- Infotopia
Next up on my list: every other book ever written :)

Oy, I love ILL too! Its like God’s little break for geeks. You’ll spend 18 years getting teased for reading so much, but then you get to go to college and read every book on the planet!

Durian :) LTNS. Come over - we will have a reading date. If you are good to me, I will feed you cookies and let you unpack my library. If you are very good to me, I might even let you help me design a new categorization system for them.
