Last year I signed up for Thinkblank's Secret Santa. The idea is simple. You sign up, leave a note about yourself, and leave a link to your wish list at Amazon. On December 10th you get the name of the person you are a Secret Santa for and purchase something inexpensive for them (around $10-15 I believe they say). It's pretty cool. Last year I got a book (that's about three books away from being read), and sent out a CD to someone else. It was pretty cool, so I'm doing it again this year. Hopefully with just as good results.
