Annoyingly, Library Thing wants $25 if you have more than 200 books. -DR
DouglasReay is about to move house, and thus also move all his books. Now is the time to scan them in! Has anyone got a barcode reader, or know where I can get hold of a cheap one? What I'd actually really like is for someone to sit down with me and Louise's laptop, and help get things set up to the point where I can scan a couple of books, then press a button, and have them automatically added to a database or website of choice - ideally using info [Amazon] or [google books] or similar to categorise them. Anyone done this?
We have one, though I'd have to find it. It needs a (real, not one of those little USB adapters) keyboard port. - MoonShadow
Thank you. Though, since Kitiara's laptop only has USB I purchased one for myself. It works, and enters into a notepad a digital number corresponding to the ISBN encoded in the book's barcode. Now to [try to do something useful] with that. --DR
Ok, I've now got this to the point where it can generate useful SQL so I need a database, accessible over the net, and without cost. Anyone know of a website that supplies this? --DR
I read 'A Phule and his money' and was disappointed by it. Is 'Phule me twice' any better? --Angoel
I like them all, so I'm not the best person to ask - SunKitten
Well, it wasn't bad, but 'Phule's Company' and 'Phule's Paradise' are so much better than it. --Angoel
I liked them, but then again there is quite a bit of trash I like. --DR
Cherryh:
The pride of Chanur
Reap the Whirlwind
Wizard Spawn
Cyteen
Charrette: Timespell, A prince among men, Wizard of Bones, Eye of the Serpent
Scott Card: Ender's Game (+), Wyrms
Green: Mistworld, Ghostworld, Hellworld, Something from the Nightside
I think Mistworld is the best of those three. They lead onto the death stalker series. --DR
Gaiman: Temps
Durgin: Barren Lands
Cook: First Truth
Clayton: Drum Warning
Chester: Reign of Shadows, Shadow War, Realm of Light
Christian: The Truthsayer's Apprentice
Moon: Change of Command, Remnant Population, Once a Hero, Trading in Danger
Several of those are parts of series, I believe. I liked Trading in Danger --DR
All but Remnant Population are. Trading in Danger is pretty good, but then, Moon invariably writes her best books at the beginning of series. Similarly, Hunting Party and Once a Hero are my two favourites in the horses InSpace series. --Angoel
Scott-Rohan: A Spell of Empire: the Horns of Tartarus
Gemmell: Sword in the Storm, Ravenheart, Storm Rider, Midnight Falcon
Laurel Hamilton: books 1 and 2 in the Anita Blake series
Usagi Yojimbo: No, I haven't managed to lend this to SunKitten yet. But I'm going to continue to rave about it now and then until I do succeed. Bwahahahaha. --DR
