A shot from the old days of the net - bookcrossing.com

What a cool idea - put a number in a book, leave it sitting somewhere, and have a website where you can add reviews of it and find out where it got to.

This feels like one of those early 'cool' sites that used to make the web so interesting to comb through all the time.

BibDesk on Sourceforge.

I've made BibDesk open-source (BSD license). It's hosted on Sourceforge.net here.

Right now, the source is there in CVS, and I'll be adding file releases soon.

I've created three mailing lists: bibdesk-{announce,users,develop}@lists.sourceforge.net. You can subscribe, if you're interested, at the corresponding page: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-{announce,users,develop}.

Feature request for Radio

I'd like to see a link to the comments for a post from the locally-served desktop website in Radio. I don't like having to fire up a separate window to see if anyone responded to me.

I wish I could hack this onto Radio, since I have the feeling it'd be a quick hour of code if you knew what you were doing. But, I've spent too much time lately learning new environments. So I'll just post about it on the radio userland discussion lists.
