I dont know if any of you caught this story in the news but basically its people who read a book and then leave in the street on a phonebox or on a park bench for example.
Basically the concept is: You have a book that you have read and are willing to let it go and let others read it.
By using http://www.bookcrossing.com and Register the book, you have to release it into the 'wild' for someone else to read (give it to a friend, leave it on a park bench, donate it to charity, "forget" it in a coffee shop, etc.), and get notified by email each time someone comes here and records journal entries for that book. And if you make Release Notes on the book, others can Go Hunting for it and try to find it!
Give it a try...
