Library Thing---very cool!

Jun 27, 2006 14:32


Knicked from Boing Boing (of course), this site looks very cool---or, rather, I should say it sounds cool: I was not actually able to open the site.  Anyway, it sounds like something I could really get into.

LibraryThing: cool social library catalog

WSJ has an interesting article about LibraryThing.com, a site that lets you create a database of your books, rate them, review them, and look at the catalogs of other users. The social information compiled by LibraryThing lets you find recommended books, the top-rated authors (and the lowest rated authors -- poor Jessica Cutler), the top-rated books, and lots more.
LibraryThing is free for users who catalog 200 or fewer books; after that it's $10 a year or $25 for life. Link (free WSJ article)
