A La Carte (12/5)

Prince Caspian Trailer
Just as we begin reading through the book as a family, the theatrical trailer for Prince Caspian has been released. Rejoice!
The Brotherhood of Sons
Russell Moore writes about "What Some Rude Questions About Adoption Taught Me About the Gospel of Christ." It's a great read!
Paperspine
Paperspine is a new service that is essentially Netflix but for books. If you like to read but don't care to buy so many books, this may be a good service for you.
Reality Check Conference
Registration for the Reality Check Conference (for youth and college students) is fast filling up. If you'd like to join with hundreds of other believers to close out 2007, check out the web site. I'm going to be there blogging it...

Paperspine?

I can reserve books online from my local library system for free, but I do need to drive 1.5 miles to pick them up and drop them off. I guess that once gasoline approaches $20 a gallon that I might want to rethink this strategy, but until then…

(Not to mention that it looks like Papersine’s selection of Christian titles is less than that of my local library.)

Paperspine?

Granted I do pay for my library services, but I can order books from almost anwhere in the province.

Where have I heard this before? Oh, yeah! I’ve got a BookSwim subscription. I checked out Paperspine after reading your post and it’s just a BookSwim-clone. I think I’ll start WebMovies.com and market it as a brand new idea. I’m a genius!
