Some things That I Like:

1) Goodreads! Why is it suddenly so fun to write reviews of books that I read? I don’t know. (Reading: It’s The New Having A Blog.) I’ve never liked the reviews on Amazon, but suddenly here I am, working really hard on mine, you guys. See? See? See? See? Fun.

2) The thing on Facebook that “suggests” people you may know. Like, yes, it’s completely creepy, and I know that it’s just based on all the email addresses that Facebook stores when you use the Friend Finder and then hordes away for undoubtedly nefarious purposes which will become transparent at a later date, but I’ve had a few Whoa moments where two completely disparate friend groups turn out to know the same person, and it provides a nice little It Takes A Village moment. Just saying. I feel like we can share the things that warm us deeply, it doesn’t all have to be about the things that frustrate me about the internet.

3) I know people who write things like this.

4) And this.
