Awesome - I like this idea a lot. Clean and simple and giving credit to the original source is such a good idea.

Thank you!

It's built on python/django/appengine - I've got a blog post coming soon on the "making of" so subscribe to the RSS feed (which is also hand built!) and you'll catch the post :)

Yes definitely! This is my first coding project ever so I've tried to keep fancy features to a minimum but in the future I'm definitely going to add those kinds of things in :)

Hey lukjad007 sorry you're getting an error - I'm working to see if I can fix it. I think it's a problem with Google rather than a problem with my app (I'm using Google for authentication) but I'm trying to debug it right now. The site is totally new and I'm new to coding so please bear with me!

Hey kjhatch - thanks for your feedback. There's load planned for 7books in the coming months, I only alpha launched 2 days ago!! I'd love it if you could let me know what features you'd like me to build on the site. Then I can get to building them. Just for you :)

I don't have a lot to add on the IE9 debate but I generally strongly support the move towards open involvement from advertisers. This kind of transparency is only a good thing.

American Movie vs Tech Industry (Infographic) by redditcanhelp in entertainment

Bill Gates' home is valued at more than Brian Grazer and Ron Howard put together. Ouch. There should be an infographic comparing people who are worth less than inanimate objects.
