Newspaper bags, excellent! I had been putting off doing the ziplocks, partly because I don't really want to pay for bags, but also because I don't want to create new trash, but I too get those newspaper bags. And come to…

Has this facebook page been abandoned? There are no recent posts. Or maybe it was started by someone unofficially?

I want to be able to enter the name of the town I happen to be travelling in, and find all the books recently released within a stated number of miles. It would be nice if I could choose a ten mile radius or a fifty mile…

How funny! I had been thinking that when I do release some of my younger kid books, this might be what would happen, the child would want to hang on to the book for years. But I would not let that stop me from releasing.…

Spine labels! I will try that next.......and maybe the ziplock bag idea as well. My rate keeps going down every time I release a book. My very first book was journalled a couple of weeks ago, just after the release, whi…

I have found that if I register a book as TBR, to be read, that this will be easily searchable from the drop down menu. Once I have released the book, I no longer need to search it in this easy way, and can then change t…

Good idea! I will incorporate picture taking when I have my life a little more organized and had not even thought about the fact that it would be handy for instances where a li.ttle "record keeping" is what is needed.

Thanks, bookczuk. Maybe tech will fix that problem and help things across the board, not just in the one town.

The odd thing is, that these locations are still showing up in the drop down box when I do my release notes. Is that something which resolves after a few days or something, once the change is made?

These are good! I would like to read the one at English flyer for wild releases: "Pick Me Up!" logo with and "Bookcrossing in a nutshell" text, but it is too small for me to read the print.

That's very handy, Moem! I really do not think I would have ever found the "advanced" part of the search options at all, had you not pointed me there.
So this is a Wings feature, then? (It is hard to tell what is a W…

I am thankful I have some time to while away on the computer, and I bet that some of the people who pick up my books do not have this kind of time available at the keyboard. Perhaps the only way some people can use a com…

That seems like it would be terrific promotion for BC---a certain number of the friends of active users will, once they see the posts about books being released and registered, want to come to the site and learn more.

Thanks, that was faster than I expected! I'll have some more cleanup later, there are a few places which I believe to be gone, but which I will have to verify while out and about.

Yes, meganh, I know! I had really not expected to be so lucky so fast, but part of my "luck" came from reading and following some tips over in the Release Techniques forum. I love that people here at bookcrossing take th…
