They must be the Oxycontin of the Internet for some people.

McGinn has a lot of big and interesting ideas, but House List is also full of fascinating practical information for home-buyers or renovators. Hope I have a friend who’s looking for a house in December or so, because this would make a great holiday gift …

I know a lot of people who’d love this book. Realtor, Red Fin and Zillow are definitely addictive websites. As a first-time buyer, I’m actually hoping to find a space that I can *de-clutter* and keep tidy and simple, rather than spend my budget filling it with expensive, brand-name, imported stuff. So maybe I only have lukewarm house lust. :)
