Writing in the library

As I'm fairly certain that no one reads/has ever read this blog, I'm beginning to conceive of it as a book tucked away in an obscure hexagonal shelf, differing only by a letter or two from the book next to it.
I should clarify that I don't think that Borges anticipated the internet, only that he provided a series of images that are easily re-tasked when thinking about blogs and the like.

So, how does "Re-tasking Borges: Illusions of Technological Prophecy in (a couple of academic books I'm reviewing)" sound?

And continuing with my re-tasking of The Library of Babel, does each new post extend the same book or create a new one?
