BookMooch - Possible weeding tool?

Check this out:
From the site:
"BookMooch is a community for exchanging used books.

  • Give & receive: Every time you give someone a book, you earn a point and can get any book you want from anyone else at BookMooch.

  • Points for entering books: you receive a tenth-of-a-point for every book you type into our system, and one point each time you give a book away. In order to keep receiving books, you need to give away at least one book for every two you receive.

  • Help charities: you can also give your points to charities we work with, such as children's hospitals (so a sick kid can get a free book delivered to their bed), Library fund, African literacy, or to us to thank us for running this web site .

  • World wide: BookMooch is not just for Americans.

  • Why create this?: if you're passionate about books, you know how emotionally difficult it is to throw a book away, even if you will never read it again. You want to find a good home for your books, have them find someone who appreciates them. "
