So, as the "chair" for the Technology Committee, I thought I'd share the one semi-technological thing I do related to literature: my book blog. Last winter, a group of my friends and I decided that we didn't read enough books, and made a pact to read fifty in the calendar year. We started this blog to force ourselves to keep up with it:
http://fiftybooksproject.blogspot.com
If you look at it right now, you'll see my overwhelmingly negative and somewhat racy review of J.G. Ballard's Crash, which, admittedly, is not worthy to be called literature. For that matter, it's hardly worthy to be called kindling.
Anyway, I have a lot of fun doing it and I only have five books left to read. If anybody likes the idea, our goal is to spruce up the site for 2008 and get a few more people to join, so the more the merrier.

What a smart idea for a blog. Liked the review of Crash as well. Haven't read the book and after reading the review, I don't think I would, so thanks for the warning on that :)
