Free as in Books?

donkeyDevil writes "Forget free software, contribute to free books! The Chronicle has an interesting story about bookcrossing.com's effort to track feral books through their captors. Read about it, then do it. (Although the focus of the story is on Bay Arean book releasors, it looks like you'd have a better chance of snagging a free book here.)"

    The difference my friend is choice. This process only works with your specific opt-in-only co-operation. And you get to choose what books you expose in the process. The Thought Police methods work without you even knowing you are being watched.
