[LM_NET] Confessions of a Book Store Stalker, part 2

[Tony Pope <pope1966@ATT.NET>]

A couple of years ago I posted on LM_NET to see how many of us go to book stores 
and "stalk" new publications.  My tried and true method at that time was writing 
interesting titles in the back of my checkbook (something many other did)...but 
also heard of many who utilized technology (PDA's, etc.) to record them.

For the past several months I have been using an app on my iPhone called SnapTell.  
I can take a picture of the cover of the book, select the image, send and about 98% 
of the time it identifies the book and saves it on my phone to look at later.  I 
still try to be sneaky about it...I'd hate for the book store people to know I'm 
"shopping" for purchases from my library book vendors!
