I am unclear why this site is hailed as one of the photosharing sites.
Did I miss something on shutterfly, or kodak, or other sites?
I have decided to read up on this stuff.
Will start Web 2.0 and beyond : understanding the new online business models, trends, and technologies byTom Funk.
In total opposition to this technological, non-fiction material, attended a night at a local bookstore with some reps from Random House.
Suggestions of good books specifically for book-groups.
Interesting (remember - they're trying to sell you something!)
So here are my top picks from the 30 suggestions :
A Mercy - because if you are somewhat intimidated by Toni Morrison this is evidently the book to start with!
Revolutionary Road - who hasn't felt they want to escape this bourgeois life.... and who hasn't returned to ordinary life after tragedy...
The Unit - a scandinavian modern take on Brave New World
The Last Town on Earth - historical novel, two youths in a predicament, an epidemic - sounds like a riveting tale!
The Friend who got away - because it allows for people to discuss small things about themselves that are safe - great for bookgroups with members who are not well acquainted with each other!
Mister Pip - Charles Dickens read on a small Pacific Island to local youths during a time of civil war : how do they think it up?
Beowulf on the Beach - because it allows us to admit we don't all read all parts of every book. Because it tells us it's okay to skip - and even highlights what to skip! AND - it tells us what we should never skip, which is even better!
