Anders is right, this is pretty full of web 2.0 stuff and seems nicely 
designed (my wife is Swedish and I can read just enough Swedish to see 
that this is a pretty good catalog and make some sense of the choices). 
The new stuff, tagging, reviews, etc. are there, but so are the more 
conventional things like finding branches, services, delivery, etc. I'm 
going to pass this on to my bibliophile in-laws in Stockholm and wife 
here and see how they like it (they'll be much tougher than I am!)
