Librarything seems like it would be a good resource for reader's advisory. As an avid reader, I am always looking to find new authors that I might not know. One good way to find them would be to look at what else people liked who liked the same book as me. I've tried using novelist to discover new books and did not find it helpful. Librarything reminds me of the "lists" you can make at amazon, which has lead me to the discovery of good books in the past.

generators

Generators are very interesting. There are so many different kinds out there. I had an idea about them previous to this exercise but didn't know they had a name or that there were so many of them. The only thing I didn't like was that most of the web pages are covered in ads. I can understand the "engineer" should be compensated for their work, but to many can take away form the purpose of the page.

bloglines

I think RSS is a great idea! I wish I had thought of it. It is very conveniant to see everything without having to go to the individual websights.

technology

my favorite technologies are (in no particular order): indoor pluming, microderm abrasion, spell-check, the wheel, internal combustion engines, shoes, diaper genies/ disposable diapers, toothbrushes, the book, the telephone, and last but not least air conditioning.
