Make someone happy, make them a mixtape (or more likely a cd)
According to essayist Geoffrey O’Brien the personal mixtape is “the most widely practiced American art form”, so why not join in on the fun? Make a selection of your favorite music and burn it onto a cd, then give it to someone special (as the song goes).
Or how to help others discover books.
All the world’s a library,
And all the men and women merely lenders.
www.bookcrossing.com encourages you to share books with others by leaving them at a place others will find them, such as park benches and coffee shops, and registering it at their site. There you can follow the fate of your book, does it travel around the world or is it now someone else’s favorite?
