I'll probably still be working then, but i'd be happy to organize another session either later on Saturday or any time on Sunday. What do other folks in the Western hemisphere think? Would 7-8pm EST on Saturdays work? Or how about mornings on Sundays, say 9-10am EST?

@ Tutti
I need your advice. I ´m going to spend a few days in Rome in August and I'd like to bring back some books for the Super Challenge. Does anyone know the address of a second hand bookshop where I can find cheap novels to read?

Not quite what you were asking for, but I love the site www.ibs.it, they have TONS of e-books and lots of offers when they cost 1-5 € for a limited time only. I highly recommend subscribing and getting their e-books!


Speaking of that, is anyone familiar with any of these?



I'm fascinated by Europe (and I basically identify as European), so I looked for stuff about Europe in general or about several countries at once. (that last one is pricey for an e-book, but it's about a trip from Rovaniemi to Odessa!!!)

I agree that IBS is great; between that and Amazon I've never had problems finding the ebooks I want to read at a decent price, which is great considering the difficulties that some people on here are having with ebook sales and licensing.

I noticed that there were quite a few similar books about Europe and the EU for sale at the Trastevere market that I mentioned: it seems to be a popular topic! The "33 false verità" one looks very familiar. I've not read any of them though.

Anyone seen this: Italia - Web Series TV? I
skimmed through some of the series, and some have subtitles (I looked at Freaks! - which
looks like a "Heroes" imitation, and one of the comedies). I'll check it out later this
evening - it could be a good resource!

Or it could blow. Hard to tell.

Looks like a good resource! I suppose web series aren't going to be as professional as broadcast TV series, which means more variation in quality. On one hand they'll be more low-budget and amateurish, but on the other they aren't limited by having to try to appeal to the masses. Also, episodes are often shorter, which is good when you have a bit of spare time but not enough to sit down to a full 25 or 50 minute TV episode.

I've already seen most of the episodes of "The Pills", which is on that site, and it's quite a well done comedy. I'll check out some others soon. Thanks for the link!
