If you want to find the best online deal on textooks for UC Davis, check out GetchaBooks.com. Although UC Davis course, aren’t currently listed in their school menu, you can search for textbook deals by ISBN.

As TechCrunch explains it:

GetchaBooks, founded by three youngsters (two who are still undergrads at Tufts), has just announced an expanded and improved database of classes and books, pushing the number of schools available in their unique interface from 600 to 1,275.

GetchaBooks is different from other services like Chegg and Textbooks.com in that the search system is centered around courses. Rather than typing in “Advanced Dance Movement For Accountancy Students” into a search box, you select your school, your courses, and sections. GetchaBooks then searches its database of courses and finds the required reading for each course.

Book.ly and Slugbooks also offer by-course searches as well, although Getchabooks is a bit more streamlined.

Over at Lifehacker, they have a step by step guide to How to Hang Pictures Without Destroying Your Walls. One of the tips we liked was this one:

Bonus Tip: Use Disposable Hooks

3M’s Command line of plastic and metal hooks also work well to hang light pieces of art and posters from drywall or concrete, without the need for drills or nails. Apartment dwellers in rental units, college students, or anyone else who’s technically prohibited from hammering or drilling will find them especially useful. The adhesive strips that come with Command hooks go on easily, cure quickly, and remove without damaging the walls (in most cases,) which is a huge benefit if you like to change out the art on your walls frequently, or just don’t want to risk drilling or hammering nails into them.

The trouble with these kinds of disposable hooks, Velcro strips, and other mounting strips is that they’re generally rated for very light objects. If you have small, light plastic or acrylic frames with photos or printed posters in them, they’ll work well. If you have a solid wood frame or oversized pieces of art, they may hold for a few days, but your art will come clattering down unless you use three or four hooks to hold it up.
