This is actually my first experience with following a blog, so I am curious to find out what all the hub-bub is about. I will for four days review feeds from and provide reflection on the following blogs: NYT>Books; The Shifted Librarian; USATODAY.com Books-Top Stories...
Wed 11/4/09
NYT>Books---Today 3 different books were posted; Books of the Times: Wartime China's Elegant Enigma, Postcards From the Edge: Tocqueville's Letters Home, The Online Price War Over Books Has a Fresh Twist (Or Two). As I take it, these are all books recommended by the Times as good reads...I personally would be most interested in the third.
The Shifted Librarian---Posts were submitted from Nov 3. Discussed were issues such as how catalogs should evolve to become more "patron friendly," and the move for Facebook to open its doors to corporate webpages. Most interesting was this direct quote written as a post..."I have set out to produce a book that can be had in a range of packages and at a range of price points from $0.00 to $10,000."--via Peter Murray...This makes no sense to me...
USATODAY.com Books-Top Stories---Today there were two post about the same subject; Obama's half brother recalls their abusive father in novel. What caught my attention about this is that it was posted once at 2:01 am and again at 5:18 pm on the same day. Next was a posting about short stories from John Grisham.
