Post that Library Thing!

Wow! The wonderful world of social networking for booklovers!

There were many neat features on Library Thing that made it very easy to add a book to one's list--like an amazon.com or Library of Congress search. You also get pictures of covers, etc. I liked reading the reviews of books on my list from other members. I also liked how statistics would come up quickly on how many members listed one of your books in their lists.

The social data tab was nice so you could quickly read reviews. I also figured out how to write a review of my own!

The link to the authors in your list was amazing! With a double-click of the mouse, you could view lots of information on your favorite authors.

Let's just say this was a fun exercise:
