There is a social network involved where people can "friend" other members, join and create groups, and comment on each other's writing, or label their work as a favorite. There are tons of public domain free eBooks from short stories to novels. You might already be a "member" because members can use their LiveJournal or Technorati ID (among other options) to sign up.

I've never had the pleasure of passing through Canada's Yukon Territory when the Northern Lights were dancing, but there is never a shortage of something beautiful to see. Every time I drive the highway I consider that the Yukon is one of the least populated areas on the planet, and how so many people are missing out. Of course, I want to see Gao, India too.
