Via Bob McWhirter by way of Erik Thauvin, Book Crossing looks like an excellent idea. It’s a catch and release system for books. It looks like quite an interesting idea, though I’m not sure how practical it is going to be. I might try releasing a few and see what happens.

weblogs.java.net
An interesting note about the weblogs.java.net RSS feed: Each entry in the feed has the following properties:
<dc:rights>Copyright 2003, Sun Microsystems, Inc.</dc:rights>
<dc:publisher>O’Reilly and Associates</dc:publisher>It’s interesting to note that the weblogs.java.net entries are Copyright Sun Microsystems and not their authors. It’s probably not significant, just ineteresting.
