Presenting... 
https://bookstr.xyz, a simple Goodreads alternative built on Nostr!
This is an extremely basic prototype that only barely works (user beware!). However, I think it highlights what is amazing about building on Nostr. I was inspired by this post, and then able to build a client in 3 days almost entirely with AI.
The opportunity to bridge social behavior with "other stuff" (in this case, books via Open Library API) is huge. This concept could work for any type of content, not just books. Music, Movies and TV, games, etc. — all on Nostr.
The process of building on Nostr with AI also demonstrated a few gaps in the ecosystem where AI-ready tools were missing or failing, so there is definitely opportunity to grow there.
Shout out @0461fcbe who had many of these ideas first, helped me with lots of the Nostr event specifics, and solved a couple bugs!
Overall, I'm extremely impressed by what can be done with AI on Nostr and all the doors this will open! I'm excited to keep working on this. #bookstr #GrowNostr #AI #Nostr

Use this holiday season as an opportunity to build out your local mesh.
SeeedStudio T1000-e: My top choice for EDC (Everyday Carry) mesh node. It has no external antenna, waterproof, compact and reliable.
Rak WisBlock: My go to for building solar-powered repeaters. With ultra-low power usage, it’s perfect for long-term, remote setups.
Lilygo T-Deck: For a standalone all-in-one device—no phone or tablet required. It has the classic BlackBerry-style form factor, and once the new UI is ready, this will be a must have. Everyone will want one, consider getting one before the rush comes.
Heltec v3: If you’re just starting out, this is a low cost option is a solid entry-level unit and easy to find with a case included. Easy to experiment with and great for beginners.
Got a 3D printer? Skip the Heltec V3 and print your own case and dive straight into a custom Rak build. It is just slight more expensive and far better on power consumption.
