I’ve been very addicted to this website called Shelfari lately. Yes I have an account on LibraryThing and GoodReads, but there’s just something about seeing bookjackets on a shelf that makes me fall in love with it.
Throughout my life, I’ve been surrounded by libraries (in fact, I work in one) and this website just makes me feel right at home. Not only that, it also encourages me to read more so I can continue adding books to my shelf. Most will go on my to-read or wishlist.
I recently finished the Twilight Saga series; I had no idea it was so good! I’m now starting Harry Potter Book 6; hoping to finish it before seeing the movie.
Please add me on your Shelfari list so we can share books and reviews.
Day 1 at the Google I/O Conference will always be very memorable to me. I shall never forget it. I arrived at Moscone Center West with my friends and a huge Google Map pin awaited us outside the front steps. How super geeky and cool. :)
Registration was super fast. We got our spiffy Google I/O badge that was all decked out with a QR code with all of our contact info on it. They keynote started a little after 9am and everyone rushed to the third floor.
Many things were said in the keynote about new products, but the most exciting part was when Vic Gundotra said we’d each get a box with a URL in it. In addition to that box, we’d also get a Google phone. The crowd of 4.000+ attendees went wild at this point!

I love the new themes in Gmail! My favorite one to look at is the Candy theme. But I find reading my emails with it distracting. I’m currently using BubbleGum for my mail. ;) What about you?
You can view the themes by going to Settings and then Themes.
