I don't have that kind of trouble with the bookcrossing site. I don't know why it's so slow for you. To answer your question though, if you don't register it then you won't be able to follow the books travels. Half the fun, or most of the fun I think, is getting those messages telling you were it went. ~Erica

I'm finding that the trouble to register the book meant that I'd only managed to get one registered so far. Then, when today I actually released it, I can't get the website to do anything but take 20 minutes to go anywhere. Meaning, even though my book is "in the wild", no one but me knows about it. Even more, by chance (because I had to go back through the area I left the book -- and I happened to see a buzz of several people talking about it, and one person picking it up to take it home. It did feel really FUN to know the book is going to a "new home", but all the hassles with the website have really dampened my spirits for the bookcrossing.com part. So why do YOU bother dealing with bookcrossing? Why not just set your books free and enjoy the free karma? I'm going back to try the website once more, but if it doesn't work, I'm just going to set my books free without using bookcrossing anymore.
