Glad you like it!
Currently, no content from HN/SO is displayed apart from the Quoted by area.
We're not editing anything manually; what I will do is display the actual conversations in the "Quoted by" area, either when you click on a conversation.
I may ove the quotes above to make them stand out more.
Did I properly answer your question ?

Ok, so the book description is written manually?
Was justing wondering if the content might be touched by any copyright issues etc.

Aaah - I see :) The book description is provided by the Amazon API itself; I'm not aware of any issue with publishing it if you are a registered API user.

Ok, thanks! :-)
Questions: Apart from the "Quoted by" section, is any of the content from SO or HN displayed on the site? E.g. are any comments incorporated in the book descriptions, or are those written by you/wife?
