A house without books…

…is like a room without windows.
I was approached by the person running this site, and asked, (if I approve of it), to link to it. I like the idea a lot. Books shoudl move around and be enjoyed:) And its a great way to try some form of new idea, music, inspiration, while sending your old ones out into the world. Can anyne who tries it out, let me know what they think? I will be:)
Title Trader - Book Swap and trade your used books, DVDs, CDs, and textbooks for something new, for free
From Daniel’s email:
“The site works by users posting what they have to offer, when someone requests one of their items they send it out. In doing so they receive points that can be spent on anything else on the site. The sender pays the shipping, but the favor is returned when they request something. The site is free, with a few added features for a minimal fee.
To give you a little more information about the site, it was opened in September of 2004. A couple months earlier my sister came to me with the idea for a new website. She had a lot of books and a small house and thought it would be a good idea to help get rid of some of them. I put it together in a few weeks and have been working on it since. We have over 180,000 items listed, with almost 8000 users, and 90,000 items have been traded. We’re the largest such site that has not only books, but CDs, DVDs, VHS, video games, and magazines. It provides a nice flexibility being able to trade a CD for a DVD for example. The site also supports international trading, users can select which countries they are willing to ship to.“
