Bookcrossing stuff  
 

Bookcrossing was featured on Jim Hawkins' show on BBC Radio Shropshire 2/09/05.

The whole feature runs for about an hour and has contributions from Heather Pedersen of Bookcrossing, Mark Lefanyou from the Society of Authors, the author Neil Gaiman, and some bloke called Netstation. In addition many bookcrossers called or 'e' mailed the show and either spoke on air, or had their 'e' mails read out. The audio from the show is available, along with a nice write-up, via the Radio Shropshire site here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/shropshire/content/articles/2005/09/02/bookcrossing_feature.shtml

The presenters have now decided to cover Bookcrossing every week! The first weekly update is also on that page. If you like what you hear and see it would be nice if you'd let the presenters know. They are both now active BC members and you can PM them via BC, where their screennames are JimOnTheRadio and Laneycakes.

The links below are smaller MP3 versions of the audio for those who don't have, or want, Real Player.
