Word of the Day: Inerdia

In other news, Domori chocolate is yummy.

I have developed a total addiction to book swap sites. I'm a member of Swaptree (which also swaps CDs, DVDs and video games) and BookMooch. I love being able to swap books I don't need for ones I want to read, and only having to pay postage for the things I sent out. Brilliant

Have you seen http://www.paperbackswap.com?

Now I have. I'm not impressed with the "list 10 books before you can do anything else" deal, though. I don't have 10 books to swap out right now, and while I understand needing members to send books before they receive them, I think making them list 10 books is kind of a dumb policy.

That's a good definition of inerdia for -you-... But for the rest of us, I think it's probably something like: "The gravitational pull of everything on the Internet, keeping [us] from putting down the computer and getting back to Real Life (sic)." :-)

I know that's the problem I have...
