Ramblings, citations and "brainwaves" of a college librarian in Toronto. 475 square feet refers to the size of my home, not the size of my office or library.
Wednesday September 26th's Wall Street Journal had a front page story on writters in Japan cranking out novels on cellphones. Mobile novels first appeared 7 years ago in Japan...with Maho i-Land, which today has 1 million novels hosted. Popular novels are making it into print. Stories are mostly a "string of conversation and emotion, and there is almost no setting, scene, or character development". Humm, sounds like Seinfeld.
