BookCrossing Fever in UK Media

Guess what website was the Website of the Day for February 22 on BBC 2? If you guessed BookCrossing, you're spot on! Pop on over to BBC 2 and see what Miles Mendoza had to say about BookCrossing. And while you are there, you can even post a comment. What a brilliant choice for a site of the day! Then there was Kleptokitty's BBC Radio interview this week, too. Keep your eyes and ears open for the following media mentions:

Ergo magazine Issue 10 (this is the magazine of the Global Action Plan Charity).

The Independent on Saturday 26 February, will carry an interview with UK BCer Olliebear.

Dagon is to be featured in an upcoming interview for BBC Radio 6.

The Charlie Jordan show on LBC 97.3 London will have live interviews with BCers from 5:30 p.m. this coming Sunday, 27 February (An LBC producer caught the article in Ergo and contacted London BookCrossers. How cool is that?!)

And of course the new BBC TV show Page Turners will be airing soon, which we understand will feature BookCrossing quite heavily.

KleptoKitty on BBC Southern Counties (We're told that this went out all across the south of England, and even the reporter joined BookCrossing,, so Kleptokitty must have done a good job! Second and third parts of this still to be posted. Keep an eye to the Announcements forum)
