The Aerie
Hey y'all. Life and work continue to conspire to consume my time and leave me only crumbs with which to work, but I've managed to assemble my Convergence 2008 book list using Goodreads.com. No account is necessary in order to view my book list and read the recommendations.
I am very happy that I have figured out this tool, as this gives me the opportunity to undertake another of my endless, partially-completed projects, that of inventorying all of my books on my blog, as well as listing what I am presently reading. As a matter of fact, let's do that now...
There, now that's a pretty useful tool. I bet they have some kind of widget I could install that would always show my Currently Reading shelf from Goodreads... have to look into that.
Anwyay, Convergence was a blast about which I ought to blog, but I'm out of time. The whole family had fun, though, and I was on several book-recommending panels, so I promised to post my list online. Only one person actually has asked to see it, but at least now I can point them the right way.
Okay, off to bed, hopefully to keep my job tomorrow... cross your fingers!

I already had a bunch of books in Visual Bookshelf, but I couldn't figure out how to segregate a selection into Convergence 2008 Recommendations. But I already had a GoodReads account, and it integrated quite easily with Facebook, so I got a twofer.
