Chaos Project: Week Seven - Loving Others By Deeds
Got a good book stuck on your shelves gathering dust? Set it free through www.bookcrossing.com! The idea is simple – you go to the website for a free unique ID code for the book, which you write on the front page. Then you release it into the wild (leave it in a suitable public place) for someone else to find it. When someone picks it up, if they notice the instructions on the front page, they will be able to log onto the site and let them know it has been found and even leave a comment. This will be emailed and so you can track your book as it gets passed from reader to reader.
