I happened to stumble upon this website: www.bookcrossing.com
Essentially, you register a book that you've already read and ready to get rid of. You "release" it- which basically means you leave it in a public place for another person to find. Then, when other people find it, they go on to bookcrossing and say where they found it and where it's going. It's basically the book version of wheresgeorge.com.
I released my first book yesterday. I hope someone picks it up and registers it! It'd be cool to see if it floats around Santa Fe or if it gets taken to some exotic locale.
I love the idea of bookcrossing. Not only is it cool to see where your books travel if they get picked up and registered, but it helps with my other recent obsession- decluttering my house!
