The Unread Books Meme
I'm not doing the unread books meme again, because I actually invented it on Sunday. It's funny how these things catch on - it seems to have been copied onto upwards of 300 blogs, and now has even reached the on-line section of the Daily Telegraph. Very gratifying.

I saw your original post and was amazed how quickly it came back onto my flist from completely unconnected areas of my online life.

Seconded—I marked it under "stuff to do when I've time" soon after it was posted, and then it started cropping up everywhere. Bunch of bibliophiles on LJ.

AOL.

Bit annoying after the first two, three.

I didn't realize you didn't get it from anywhere but your own clever imagination; it's been all over my flist. Neat!

But will you be analysing the results? - that would be fascinating.

I'll give it a try - though as [info]wyvernfriend says below, it has been subtly changing over the last few days!

Coolness! So I definitely wasn't the only one to find it more interesting than average...

I also like how people changed it slightly over the last few days. Kudos for the catch by the Telegraph.

I'm almost tempted to take my camera with me today and see how much of the pile I can photograph at work.

I don't see why you won't do it again. It was fun and obviously popular.

It's now hit Pharyngula so about a million people will see it
