Hi Nisaba, I think it varies from originator to originator.
Some like to just collect names and orinate a list to be kept in a journal entry for that book. Then it is up to each participant to PM/E-mail the next member on the list and get their details. This can be particularly useful in a large ring incase anyone moves house in that time. I've seen cases where books have been delivered to old addresses two weeks after the bookcrosser moved out! However others still like to collect addresses, as time is saved that way, and books tend to move quicker. I hope that helped!

Don't look at those stupid magazines with sticklike models. Eat healthy and exercise. That's all. Don't let anyone tell you you're not good enough. You are good enough, you're too good. Love your family with all your heart, and listen to it. You're gorgeous, whether your a size 3 or a size 14. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you're a good person, as long as you respect others. I know it's been told hundreds of times before, but it's true. Hey girls, you're beautiful." - Gerard Way [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Have you told a friend today? http://bookcrossing.com/tellafriend Archives and email list settings: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BookCrossing Yahoo!
