Websites I Like…

A fun site I recently learned about is Gnooks (http://www.gnooks.com/).  Gnooks is designed to help you find interesting books to read.  One feature it has that’s different is what it calls a Map of Literature.  You put in the name of an author you like and it produces a map that puts your author in the center and places authors that are “like” that author all around the screen.  The physical proximity of names indicates how much “like” the authors are.  It’s a fun way to get some ideas for new authors you might like. 

The site does a similar thing for Music, Movies, and Art.  Kind of fun to play around with.
