Ideas - Paragraphing?
If it is actually not too much to ask for... is it possible for formatting or paragraphing for the text in RSS? I know it's a free feature, to read "books" on your Netvibes and stuff but the whole chunk of text without paragraphing is actually rather challenging to my eyes. Does the same occurs to those who subscribe by Emails rather than RSS? If the problem is doesn't occur for emails, I'll change my method of subscription. Thanks.
Book Requests - Confederacy of Dunces
I think this obscure writer, maybe not too obscure if you actually read a lot, anyway, I think this is a great book. It's really funny and it's a shame this book wasn't published at first and only done so after his suicide because of the failure. I mean, you really have to give credit to this man for the ability to make an anti-hero close to your heart and his mum for fulfilling his wish.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky - People I want to meet when I die
I think that Dostoyevsky is one of the few authors I really, REALLY, hope to meet when I die, never mind the language barrier. I probably wouldn't speak much and will just stand in awe of him. I think he's really a great author. Maybe it's me, but somehow I prefer Russian authors, the stuff they write has more depth and really open up another world you don't see nowadays.
Ideas - Community help in adding books
I have a collection of old classics at home. I would love to help out by contributing more books. Most of them have passed the copyright stage, as far as I know from Gutenberg.
If you need help, I would...greatly appreciate?
