Another will be "possession is 9/10ths (at least) of the law." The extent to which we offshore content to third-party providers is disturbing.

That could even prompt me to do a rough taxonomy. I wonder how well BISAC would fit my needs?

Of course, at the moment, the books I've unpacked are in "this is the order I took them out of the box," and I've pledged myself to not rearranging them (and not playing with Library Thing, and not ripping my my horrible carpeting) till I am Done With School, which is coming up in just a few short weeks, hurrah, hurrah). Anyway, I look forward to hearing whatever it is you have to say (and if you do come up with something to say about social software and digital preservation, then I can include a YouTube video in the bibliography for my independent study).
