Goodreads is like a large
library that you can wander through and see everyone's bookshelves,
their reviews, and their ratings. You can also post your own reviews,
join a discussion group, start a book club, contact an author, and even
post your own writing.
The "Rare Book Room" site
has been constructed as an educational site intended to allow the
visitor to examine and read some of the great books of the world.

As well as Easter Eggs that are made of chocolate (or egg), there is another
type of Easter Egg that can be found in computers, video games, DVDs, and other
electronic systems. These electronic eggs come in the form of unexpected messages, music,
pictures or games that are hidden for fun by a programmer or recording artist,
waiting to be uncovered like eggs in an Easter Egg hunt. For example, an
unlisted track or a personal message some time after the end of a CD, an
undocumented level in a computer game, or a web page accessed by a hidden link.
The following websites contain more
information and real examples.

Grand Site of Weather Analysis and Forecasting Education". Charts, facts,
