			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;ve received several shout-outs from the blogosphere that I&#8217;d like to recognize.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.worstedwitch.com/?p=573">Worsted Witch</a>, described as &#8220;the malformed love-child of my indecorous passions for knitting, sustainability, gothic horror, and illustration,&#8221; made the case for used book buying better than I ever have, imploring her readers to support literacy at <a href="http://www.betterworld.com/">BetterWorld.com</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://booksiter.wordpress.com/2006/12/26/better-world-books/">Booksiter</a> listed BetterWorld.com as one of the top websites to find a good deal on your textbooks. They cited our <a href="http://www.rapleaf.com/profile/gQR5gdcv">Rapleaf Reputation</a> (over 1,600 positive feedbacks as I write!) which we are pretty proud of. We currently have the top ranking in the world on the Rapleaf Reputation system.</p>
<p>Tiffany on MySpace is teaching her friends how to <a href="http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&amp;friendID=36796504&amp;blogID=213843695">&#8220;Improve the world and be a Cheapskate at the same time.&#8221;</a> She can&#8217;t get over the free shipping. I don&#8217;t blame her a bit.</p>
<p>Finally, author and historian Melissa March blogged about us a few days ago on <a href="http://grosvenorsquare.blogspot.com/2007/01/good-cause.html">Grosvenor Square</a> .</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone for sharing the word!</p>
