		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to Wombles and awaywithfairies for this.* The Australian Broadcasting Corporation has put up a story about BookCrossing.com. A young journalist made a post in the Chit-Chat forum, was helped into contact with some local BookCrossers, and had a lot of fun with BookCrossers, OBCZs and a spot of wild releasing. I love the OBCZ [...]]]></description>

Written by one of my longest BookCrossing pals, who also runs a cool and quirky blog: When one of the gals in my book club mentioned it for the first time, buying books from a vending machine didn’t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No word from BookCrossing.com as to what I did to get suspended, despite me asking a few times. So far as I can see, I&#8217;ve done nothing wrong and behaved with more restraint in difficult circumstances than I have in the past, and played far nicer than some in the forums. On reviewing my contributions, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My previous post, on my surprise suspension from BookCrossing.com, hit a new record for page views on this site. Kind of sad, really, compared to the good news stories I prefer to tell. But there&#8217;s a follow-up story now, and this story is that there is no follow-up. I was suspended without warning or explanation, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I buy BookCrossing.com wings every month or so. Five dollars for a month of extra benefits and ad-free BookCrossing is a bargain. Besides, the money goes to support the site&#8217;s operation, and I know that it is an expensive business, run with a handful of staff and a team of unsung volunteers. Bruce and Heather [...]]]></description>

A custom-built set of shelves slips neatly over the phone in a standard enclosure. The pieces can be pre cut according to published plans, [...]]]></description>

Why, it&#8217;s a fundraising site, where people with projects, adventures and schemes sell their dream to others, who can kick in a few dollars. If all those donations add up to enough [...]]]></description>

Some of the older buildings are gems of architecture, and there is nothing quite like a punt ride down the Avon through the Botanic Gardens. The city square beside the cathedral is [...]]]></description>
