I registered, logged in, and added the title I rejected to the Reject list - 
all in the space of maybe two minutes.  I hit the refresh button, and the book 
I added was right there at the bottom of the Reject list.  I really don't see 
how it could be any easier or faster than it was.  Marvelous.

  Hi Evan,
      Nope, unfortunately, the lists on my website aren't updated in real time. 
Any links to pages on BookShare, of course, are real time.

      One of the biggest things Gerald and I would like to see happen is the 
automation of Marissa's list. We plan to get our heads together and discuss 
strategic updates for BookShare to consider, but with my trip and his next 
week, we're going to hold off until everything settles down.

  BTW the reject list will probably never be automated. You can login and add a 
title to it though. Perhaps I should rethink the idea of removing the links to 
restricted areas, like adding books. The links only show up now if you login.

  Jake

    Yah, I looked at the Admin queue, and half of them seem to be by Tim 
LaHaye. <grin>  Someone out there really likes him. <smile>

    Are these lists updated in real time?  I rejected "The Sunborn" a few hours 
ago, but it's not on the Books Out for Editing list, nor the Reject list.  I 
know the Step One page is updated in real time.  No biggie, just wondering.

    Also, "Buddha Heart, Buddha Mind" is still listed as by the Dalia Lama.  I 
was sure that had been fixed, because the last few times I read Cindy's Admin 
Queue list, it was correctly written as Dalai Lama.  I guess she must have 
fixed it by hand.  I hope Gustavo or John doesn't add the book to the 
collection with that author.

      Hi all,
          The May 26th edition of Marissa's List is now available at a new 
location.
      http://www.jbrownell.com/bks/ml.asp

      Note that there are only approx. 65 books in the admin queue, and 10 of 
them have been approved since the list was generated!

      Jake
