LibraryThing

I have played around with LibraryThing a bit - and I think it's a great tool.  It is super easy to use and to navigate.  However, I don't have an account myself because I don't ever find myself looking for good books to read (my holds list is always insane and provides me with more than enough books to read!) Also, I record the books that I've read, reviews, etc. in a reading journal.  I have reading journals going back to 2004 and I love flipping through them to see all the books I've read.  I can't see transferring all that stuff to Library thing - so I don't use it.

Also, I do record the books the I'm reading on Facebook, using a Books app - and so that is my online social networking thing.  I do think there is a Facebook app for LibraryThing - but I don't use it. 

I can see applications for work - particularly putting our booklists up on Library thing for others to find, and to then connect and place holds to our catalog.  Although hopefully our catalogue will do that soon! 

All in all - a super fun social media product!
