LibraryThing – How Did I Not Know About This?

OMG. From Twitter to a blog to THIS: LibraryThing. It’s an online site where you can enter what you’re reading. Keep that list available to you anywhere (unlike my Excel spreadsheet).

And, once you’ve added a book, you can see how many other people (members of the site) have also read it and what they had to say about it!

Holy Moly! I need a day off. No, two days off and a 20oz Starbucks. OK, slow down. You can enter 200 items (books, movies, music) for free. After that it’s $10/year or $25 life. Hmmmm. My personal list of books is well over 500. Even our book club list is over 200. I don’t know what to do!

A long time ago I joined Goodreads, but have never used it. Perhaps I should investigate that further, because I think that’s free and they have a larger membership. I feel the need this year to get even more organized with cataloging my reading and perhaps being a bit more social with it.

What do you think? Do you keep a searchable list of your books? How many of you are on Goodreads?
