When you get your class requirement lists, go online to the textbook publishers website and poke around for the text you need. Since your taking notes on your laptop (hopefully) anyway, its much easier to have an e-book and saves your back with carrying around tons of books :-) Just wanted to add that in addition to purchasing used textbooks, there are also several publishers who offer e-book versions of the textbooks for half or less of the price of purchasing a hard copy book from the store.

I just showed your blog to some eco-friendly clients today and they loved it. Great tips, and by the way I am REALLY glad that you're putting your college education high on your list right now. As for Wordpress for notetaking-- interesting idea. Having come from the paper-and-pen days of yore, I don't know what tools you kids use nowadays for that, and I have never used Wordpress or any other blogging software. But for all my business notetaking, I've really enjoyed Evernote: www.evernote.com. It lets you take freeform notes, add whole or part of websites as notes, include images easily, do ink notes, and it has a great tagging and search feature. It's kind of like a continuous roll of (recycled) toilet paper-- you just keep adding notes to the end of the roll. It auto-saves, and it's free. Hi Mollie!
