- The Library of Congress Hits the Jackpot on Flickr [Book Patrol] – Michael Lieberman gives a good account: “This is a watershed event. It is a solid web 2.0 victory.”
- LibraryThing | Catalog your books online : Cuecat – The cuecat is a very cheap USB barcode scanner. One of my NY resolutions is to use LT properly, and until ebooks and an LT widget (like Last.fm) this is the only way I’m going to be bothered.
- Guerrilla Advertising on the streets of Tokyo [CR Blog] – The shape of the book is not immutable. Another one for the ‘book hacks’ category.
- A Venerable Magazine Energizes Its Web Site [NYT] – The Atlantic is abolishing its paywall, expecting that going ‘free’ will actually bring them profit.
- Kinbote’s Bespoke Art Commentary Service – “Explaining why a young, immature artist â?? a child, if you will â?? chooses to be influenced by Renoir rather than Richter is an almost impossibly complex maneuver, one for which you need an expert. I am that expert.” Genius.
