I have had a Good Reads account since April 2009. I have 88 books listed.
I signed up for Library Thing. I added 5 books with tags.
I also checked out LibraryThing and Thingology blogs.
Elizabeth or Adam, what is the Thing Lang, ISBN check and MARC thing?
I found the Library Thing blog very interesting. The article Why are You for Killing Libraries? One point made in the article is that libraries just like their patrons will not own the e-book and libraries will pay more for the e-books. Gone is the "First Sale" where the libraries buys the book once put can circulate it multiple times. The virtual shelf browse at High Plains is very cool. You feel as though you are in the library standing before the shelves. Once you find a book you are interested in, you click on the title to see if it is available.
