Drew’s Harry Potter Adventure

Drew had a special night on Friday. He got to stay up past midnight to get a copy of the last Harry Potter book from a local Chapters book store, and a photographer for the newspaper snapped this photo (he’s on the left). It was on the front page of the local section.

New Site Launched: bibliomancy.org

A few months ago I launched http://bibliomancy.org. It’s just a small site for generating bibliomancy readings (bibliomancy is the practice of letting a book fall open to a random passage as a way of seeking guidance on an issue).
I’m reasonably pleased with the way the site turned out, and I have a number of ideas about how to extend it in the future. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
