Thing 18
I think Thing 18 is almost one of my favorites - partially because of the Google products I searched. The first one I chose was Books. I chose that one because I work in a library and actually deal with the books. Plus I love to read. I was able to read portions of books. Of course, that was a problem because I'd get interested and they'd skip over the next several pages. Now I have to see if our library has several books I'd like to read. Plus I saw a lot of books mentioned on stamping. So many books, so little time. The second product I checked out was Knol. That's almost like seeing yourself published. Just write a paper and put it on Knol. I read up on Zombies - some guy had written a research paper on zombies. Very interesting. Another person had lists of movies you could watch for free and in their entirety on YouTube. Called himself a chair-potato. That would get uncomfortable after a while. I checked out some of the other products - but most of them were too technical for me. Just weren't things I was interested in. There you have it - and there will be more to read by me later.

Thanks for sharing your experience with Google Books and Knol. Must have been frustrating to get involved in a book and Skip Pages. But at least you added to your list of books to read!
