Sorry, I don't see myself as a cartoon character now, nor do I ever want to see myself as a cartoon character. Oh, well.
I didn't exactly get Rollyo. Why not just use Google? Why do I want to search things I already know about. Anyway...
LIBRARY THING ROCKS!!! When I first looked at it, I thought "why am I making a list of books?". It's not explained terribly well on the homepage. Just "add books", "look for groups", "swap, borrow...", etc. THEN my colleague explained to me that this was a way to catalog your own library. My husband has what is probably one of the best art libraries in the state . One of our worst fears is that the house will burn down and the library will be irreplaceable. Also, when we die/move/whatever, the books are sort of an overwhelming mess. Robin often buys duplicate books because he doesn't even know what he has. But it could all be catalogued! A friend of ours, who lost her art library in a house fire, suggested we "take photos of the shelves", and I've actually considered this. But now the contents can live in cyberspace! He can access and add to it constantly. My art books, also. Will this turn him from a Luddite into a tech-lover? Maybe.
