A few days ago I found myself needing a new Tech book, so I headed to my favorite site for such things… Bookpool.com. Instead of finding the usual front page of Top sellers and Monthly specials, I found a Network Solutions page. It appeared as though the entire site had disappeared and all that was left was a simple placeholder left by the domain registrar.

After doing a little research online, I ran across one message board where someone mentioned that they recently visited the “brick and mortar” storefront and found most of the shelves empty and the fixtures being sold.  It looks like Bookpool is another victim of the recession and I for one will really miss them.  Here is hoping that one day they may return, but I seriously doubt it.
