lifehacker.com — Today, in the interest of lifehacking your bookshelf, I'm rounding up my favorite 13 "book hacks" for getting the most from your bound literature. The first three hacks provide ways to integrate your computer with your local library, from a web-based notification tool to a Firefox extension to a killer Mac-only menu bar app.

Hack is a cool word, and book is a cool word. Who blames someone for putting them together?

Shelfari ( <a class="user" href="http://www.shelfari.com/">http://www.shelfari.com/</a> ) seems more like myspace/facebook than that site.I mean in terms of social networking, not in terms of how retarded the people are.

Some interesting ideas in the article. I know some folks who don't live near libraries or aren't free during open ours, so they use this book rental website. I think it's this one: <a class="user" href="http://www.bookswim.com">http://www.bookswim.com</a> . Anyway, they rent books and have them delivered like gamefly or netflix. It seems pretty good deal if you're an avid reader
