BookCrossing

by Piers Fawkes

65841154_45f3911c01_mMorgwn emailed in to tell us about a community service that lets folk swap books. Once you’ve read the book version of the film Jarhead, for example, simply tell the site where you’re going to leave it. Then another user looking for the war-story book can search the site and find that it’s available on a bench or in an office on Broadway, NYC. BookCrossing has 422,443 members since it launched in 2001.
