The logistics frighten me, but I like the concept:
"If physical bookstores are to survive they need to truly be destination spots, great good places where book people love to hang out, offering something the internet giants can’t. I’m not sure the same old tired, library style category headings and inventory organization fit that vision."
If you already growl at the sight of nearly-identical book covers, don't click this link:
"The male silhouette is enjoying a renaissance not seen since the 1970s. To a lesser degree, women and two-headed butlers try on this style."
Stop and think before you burden the world with another camelcase word, okay?:
"In addition to a proliferation of Product names like iPod and eBay that have crossed over into the language mainstream, the shift from print to electronic distribution of text does a better job of preserving the capitalization chosen by the author, thus allowing it to better transmit additional meaning."
ABA's Opening a Bookstore kit is available here:
"What kind of bookstore would McChrystal operate? It's unclear, although Robert Kaplan's profile of the general revealed that he is a voracious reader of such histories as Winston Churchill's The River War. Whatever's on the shelves, one assumes that the reading room will be stocked with plenty of Bud Light Lime."
Speaking of political figures' bookstore habits:
"We weathered the storm in Politics & Prose, the official bookstore of Goldblog...right next to me was Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, also shopping in the dark."
