Cats and dogs

I'm a dog person! But I like a sprinkling of cats too. And I'm definitely an illustration person. Plus I know there are definitely some cat people amongst you. Therefore in a happy marriage of cats and illustrations I present this book: I Like Cats by Anushka Ravishankar and Various Indian Artists. I found it in Julia Rothman's inspirational book-loving blog Book by its Cover.
If you've never seen this blog and you like books take a peek, she really appreciates books as covetable, keepable objects.

Delicious (part 2) and my first bookmark

Hi there fellow bloggers,

Yesterday I tried to import my bookmarks from Delicious and the system crashed :( However being the tenacious library assistant that I am, I'm trying again this evening. Also being impatient , I decided to start adding bookmarks in the meantime. My very first bookmark I added was the recently-renamed site called 50watts.com. It used to be the blog of Will Schofield, a book illustration enthusiast/collector with a taste for weird Eastern-European (and beyond) book covers and art. I'm still getting used to the new format but it remains a great place to go for unusual desktop wallpapers as well as inspiring images so its a nice thing to share. The irony is not lost on me that I've bypassed Delicious to do the sharing on the blog, but anyway...for a taster see below.
