Found this funny post about meeting the new neighbours

Reminded me of some of the cartoons that used to appear in the West Highland Free Press. I particularly remember one of a sheep looking round an art gallery with pictures of sheep

Unfortunately the artist's site doesn't currently seem to have that many sheep, though there are some if you click on the Odds 'n Sods link - not from the WHFP though.

Despite being in the middle of town here, we have fields of sheep within 200 yards. They don't get out and invade the garden though.

===============================
POSSIBLE BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY

We have been told that there is a quantity of perhaps 100,000 books, a large proportion of them Christian and of good quality, available in the south of England. The owner does not currently have time or suitable staff to catalogue them for sale in the way we do, but we cannot help him at present.

If you have a good knowledge of Reformed and other Christian books and would like to work with the owner in some way to buy these, sell them for him on commission, or even possibly work directly for him if you have the necessary experience and skills, please let us know and we will pass on your email address. Serious propositions only, no timewasters please.

Of course it would not be particularly to our advantage from a business point of view to have a good source of books being sold by a competitor, but then again we'd like to see these good books getting into the hands of readers.

For some time I've been comparing Google's Book Search and Microsoft's Live Book Search  (Amazon Reader is another place where one can preview some books; it's primarily available on their USA site, Amazon.com , though it only really applies to recent books that publishers have chosen to allow Amazon to show in digital form).

Now, it seems, Google's and Microsoft's programmes are effectively disappearing for UK users.  Already for some months Google has reduced virtually everything printed after 1850 to Snippet View only (this date is only an approximation, some books pre-1850 are in snippet view and some post-1850 are in full view).  This is because in the UK copyright is (generally) for 70 years after an author's death.  So, suppose an author was 20 in 1850 and lived to be 100.  He would have lived till 1930 and copyright would not expire till 2000.  On the other hand MOST books that old are long out of copyright so it's a real pain that Google are working on that basis.

Just in the last few days it seems that Live Search Books has disappeared altogether as seen from our computers here, whether using Firefox or Internet Explorer; exactly what happens between the two browsers is sometimes slightly different, but neither browser leads me to a list of scanned books any more.  Interestingly some of the items I used to view on Live Search Books were downloadable from www.archive.org, so that is one option that is still open to us here in UK.

I've been unable to find out anything about the disappearance of MSN Live Book Search by searching the web, so I thought I'd blog about it and see if anyone else had any information.  Incidentally, there's a picture of what it used to look like at Phil Bradley's Weblog .
