While researching Brian Wynne Garfield's body of work, I ran across this unusual web site. I suppose it's not surprising that professionals read books related to their specialty, but I do find it amusing that the CIA would make the reading list public.

Stumbleupon
Stumpleupon.com, previously sold to eBay for $75 million, has been repurchased by its original owners for an undisclosed sum. See bits.blog.nytimes for details. I hope that it will regain the original promise that it showed.
If you are not familiar with stumpleupon, I highly recommend it. It's free and, for the moment, ad free. You sign up with a short questionnaire covering your interests. It then guides you into stumbling upon Internet sites that appeal to you. Thereafter you can rate each site with thumbs up or down to improve the accuracy of your future finds.
Take a look and report back on the most interesting pages that you stumble upon.
