Still working on a review of the various books, films, albums etc I’ve been consuming lately.

In the meantime, I’ve republished the Thailand 2004 diary from my first trip to the Far East. I’m still working on writing up this year’s trip, tentatively titled “Thailand 2005″. Original, no?

Despite merciless editing, I don’t think it reads as well as the diary from Rome 2004, but it’s included for completion’s sake, and as a source of reference for its forthcoming sequel(!)

I might add a ‘Recent Reading’ block to the sidebar, as I’m getting through novels faster than I can write about them at the moment.

Another project idea which occurred to me, and almost immediately terrified me almost to death, is to catalogue every book I have ever read. Not necessarily with a full review, but with enough information for me to remember which one it was, and maybe a rating system. How would I even begin? It would be an enormous strain, but I’d love to know how many books I’ve read. Can I remember them all?

I’m really talking about novels here, not textbooks or reference manuals, but it would still be an enormous task, and I’ve no idea how I’d build such a thing into WordPress.
