The following people, organizations, and web sites have contributed in one way or the other to this blog.

Joe Sherry of Adventures in Reading
I stole the tag line Books make me happy. from Joe. Go read his blog.
Amazon.com
The point of the book reviews is not to make money. But if I’m gonna link to Amazon anyway, I might as well get a commission. So all the blog is in association with Amazon.com as the linking agreement says I have to tell you.
Creative Commons
I shouldn’t forget the great work that Creative Commons has done creating its licenses, one of which I use for this site. Because of their work, readers can easily appropriate my work for non-commercial purposes.
LibraryThing
LibraryThing is the best of the online personal library cataloging sites. A couple of years ago, I wasn’t particularly impressed with their features, but they’ve improved quite a bit. You can see everything I think I’ve read there.
Twitter Tools
My personal tweets can be found in the sidebar thanks to Alex King’s Twitter Tools Wordpress plugin. Or, you can just follow kingrat on Twitter.
Events Manager
I use David Benini’s Events Manager plugin to manage the Seattle Area Author Events page. It’s a great plugin.
Wordpress
Wordpress is a great blog platform.
