I heard good things about BookMooch.com, a community for exchanging used books, so I signed up.

I was looking for something to do with my many (still-up-to-date) Lonely Planet travel guides.

BookMooch is tech millionaire John Buckman’s baby. He is doing it for the good of the universe.

I will mail any of my used books to any Book Mooch member who wants one.

Later I will request books I want mailed to me.
