I'm glad I found BookCrossing.com ! I've been the interlibrary loan contact at several libraries and here's a great way to bring ILL to the personal library level. You can share your reading list with friends and colleagues - you're reading for more than one now and reading becomes a lot more meaningful. If wheresgeorge.com is any indication, 20 or 30 years from now, you'll STILL be hearing from people thankful that you've passed one of your books along.

Here's an interesting thesis on why literacy has dipped: Hit one of those speed bumps too hard and the same force occurs to the muscles in your eyes that occurs to your neck in a good case of whiplash. What's the first thing to go? Your ability to speed read.
