I thought I was horrible with my attention span and I read maybe 3/4 at a time. 10! wonder how you keep track of all that info :)

Anyhoo, I use a site called goodreads. Dunno if you have heard of it. It can search for items from amazon etc.. and has a plugin in wordpress. Oh yeah, and it has a “socNET” feature (naturally).

You can add me here, and I will be able to keep in touch with what you are reading etc.

Interesting list of books. I too have several books on the go at the moment, some on e-learning, an Italian detective book, a book on the science and politics of fear and a biography of Rudolf Nueryev. Have you looked at shelfari – you can share the books you read on this site, give them a rating and include a review and also see what others think of the same book. They have a widget which you can embed in a blog and this might be a way for you to keep writing about the books you read. Would be interested to hear what you think about Church Shift.

It’s good to see someone else who keeps lots of books on the go at once. I have a short attention span and my wife always chuckles at the basket of books by my side of the bed – but I love it. Every night I get to choose between (currently) Sailing, Physics, Silicon Valley, Isaac Newton, Meditation… different evenings, different moods, different books. If a book gets dusty because it’s been in the basket for months and hasn’t been pulled out, it goes away. Kind of natural selection. I am going to go look at these JP, thanks for sharing.
