ouch!
Nice idea. But rather uneven in execution, many books lack that info. For instance, I searched for Islandia and found it had references to other books. However, there was no list for references to Islandia. I know some exist. In the example he gives, it lacks the list of books cited by the item. Good idea though.
I'll agree that it's uneven, just like many of their other advanced features such as "search inside the book" and tagging. The point, however, is that they're doing it and we're not.
