I really love this! I opened it and just jam on the next key (n).<p>Use this little snippet to set it to auto-next mode, for a great screensaver. Edit - here is the screensaver <a href="https://github.com/gourneau/WebSaver" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/gourneau/WebSaver</a><p><pre><code> setInterval(function(){$("#book_next").click()}, 500) </code></pre> Watching all of books fly by is wondrous to me because it feels like it is painting some weird version of conscious reality.<p>Hilary could you please add this bit of code so for auto advancing mode via the query string.<p><pre><code> function getParameterByName(name) { var match = RegExp('[?&#38;]' + name + '=([^&#38;]*)').exec(window.location.search); return match &#38;&#38; decodeURIComponent(match[1].replace(/\+/g, ' ')); } if (getParameterByName("auto")){ setInterval(function(){$("#book_next").click()}, getParameterByName("auto")) } </code></pre> It would work like this, where 500 is the number of milliseconds. <a href="http://www.bookbookgoose.com/?auto=500" rel="nofollow">http://www.bookbookgoose.com/?auto=500</a>

This is pretty awesome, it is amazing to see all the weird titles out there.<p>Is anyone else surprised by the amount of: "This is a reproduction of a book published before 1923. This book may have occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor pictures..." books for sale on Amazon?

Another thing, make an obvious link to the amazon page. something like "see it on amazon.com"

This is really great - love the idea. Just in case you hadn't spotted, I think there's a punctuation bug whereby characters are sometimes omitted, although it doesn't happen all the time. Not a big deal though.<p>Example:<p>Correctly punctuated original: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/b6sbozh" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/b6sbozh</a><p>Bookbookgoose ignores the apostrophes: <a href="http://imgur.com/4U9Ow" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/4U9Ow</a><p>[EDIT: Dropbox link was broken - using imgur instead]

Fair warning: the first title that came up for me was NSFW.

Very cool. Somewhat similar to my book discovery app <a href="http://quotab.ly" rel="nofollow">http://quotab.ly</a> (discover via random quotes). Where did you end up getting your data? Did you scrape Amazon or are you using their API?

Love it.<p>Can you please add filters for "by-genre" and "kindle-only"? Please..

I understand where the name came from, but bookbookgoose just doesn't work for me. Its just too long and unwieldy for me. As for the service itself, I am not sure what type of customer this is servicing. Are there people out there that are trying to find random books to read without any context (i.e. subject matter, recommendations from others, etc.)? Now, I think this would be a lot more useful if you could perhaps do the random thing but filtered by some criteria that makes it relevant to the user. So, for example, I want to read about 'javascript' and I search through random javascript books. It would also help to display the amazon rankings and other stats.

It's pretty cool! But I didn't like the name too =p... One more thing: 'n' and 'b' shortcuts not working on the Firefox (17.0.1).

I like it, can you add random browsing within a category (e.g. I want to browse random humor books)

duckduckgo? Anyways, I actually found this useful. What might be a good addition is current ratings (if Amazon expose such information). Another thing, put the "back" button next to the "next" button; improves usability

great idea, I really like this site! I found a little glitch, it happens when image is too high. Here is a screenshot: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/IzhRF.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/IzhRF.jpg</a>
