CB,

Great work and impressive. Perhaps you should package and publish in on the 
main thread. I am sure people there would like it.

I understand this only goes to openlibrary.org 
<http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fopenlibrary.org&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGVipEpwYFwWqFGFjXIRkmCN1OC9Q>
 is 
there a way to query other ISBN titles?

The process itself is an exemplar of bringing content in from outside 
tiddly wiki, I would hope we could generalise it for obtaining content 
elsewhere and creating a tiddler from it.

For example I have a TiddlyDesktop wiki that can access a local file 
content.
<object width="100%" height="930" data=
"file:///C:\Data\batches\networkcheck.txt"></object> 

But it would be nice if this could be captured in a tiddler with a click. 
However no one seems to be able to do this.

I feel you are doing something similar here.

Great Work

TW Tones.
