books, organized by color! - link seen in [livejournal.com profile] nikkinewsnet.

I am greatly pleased by this. The joy, the joy! The absurdity of what books might now be next to other books!

Color-sorting... yes. Just as long as you don't need to find anything, of course. ;)

I remember short stories in older anthologies by typeface and texture. "Oh, that must have been in a Judith Merrill best-of because it's all squinchy and the paper is brittle." Newer ones are harder because the fonts all look the same! I also go by era of my life when I remember first reading the story, i.e. was it during my Terry Carr phase or my Martin Greenberg phase? I might remember hardback vs. paperback or themed antho vs. single-author vs. best of the year, but that's about it.

I have an entire floor-to-ceiling bookshelf of anthologies, so these things are important. *)

That's a lot of anthologies! And I thought _I_ liked anthologies. ;)
