Coupla weeks ago I was shopping on Amazon and trying to remember if I owned Night Watch, and it turns out there are tools for this, and one is called LibraryThing, which makes you feel kind of like you’re running a library, which is great if you’re into that sort of thing (I’m not, I think); and another called Goodreads, which is great if you have bad taste (I pretend like I don’t). Anyway, let’s cut this boring story short and just say that there is Readernaut, which is also not that great, but you know what, it’s not obtuse, and it solves the lost bookmark problem, and I thought you all should know. Lost bookmarks are very important to me.
