~V~ Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 anyone else use this? it's quite good fun to catalogue your books (you can list up to 200 as a free member) and also to see who else has similar books to you there's lots more to it such as 'clouds' and recommendations, plus you can read discussions or comments on the books, rate them yourself, etc etc it's a pretty comprehensive site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Thanks for the link V, its great, I will most certainly be using it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~V~ Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share Posted January 23, 2007 i'm turningpages on there all i've listed so far are my five favourites (as listed on here) and also the books i'm reading this year. funny thing is, i don't even have all those books any longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 It looks really good, but... I must be a bit stupid because although it says I've added a book, if I go to the libarary bit, there is nothing there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Poppy Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Someone mentioned it a few weeks ago and I have been cataloguing books ever since, so far about 50. It doesn't always recognise them, so it takes longer doing it manually. It's good to have an instant visual record, and I like reading the reviews and comments from others. I enjoy it.

Icecream Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Lol, I think we'd all end up paying for membership knowing what people are liek on here. 200 wouldn't cover it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polka Dot Rock Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Hey! I went on this months ago, but I wasn't on the forum then so didn't have anyone to link with... ...But I do now! Rather predictably, I'm PolkaDotRock on there, too. Please add me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Rather predictably, I'm PolkaDotRock on there, too. Please add me And, also predictably, I'm Bagpuss! I've sussed out how to add books now! ETA: How do you add someone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polka Dot Rock Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 And, also predictably, I'm Bagpuss! I've sussed out how to add books now! ETA: How do you add someone? I think it's called Watching on there... Strange. You go into the Search tab at the top of the page, then enter the name you want in the Search User box. Then their profile should come up, and on the right hand side, you can click Add to Your Watch List. Which I've just done with you I think that's how it works, but if there's anything I haven't seen, let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Thanks Amy. LOL - watching does sound a bit stalkery! I've added you now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronny Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I use someting similar, I had more than the 200 books allowed for free membership and so I found - Listal - List the stuff you love! Movies, TV, music, games and books It is much like Librarything but is new, still in developement and is completely free. Tom, the developer, is very good & open to suggestions.

Janet Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Will look into that one too, Nicky. Thanks. Library Thing has gone down. Do you think it's our fault for all rushing over in one day?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Poppy Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Is it down again? It went down for about ten or fifteen minutes earlier on tonight. They've had trouble with spammers, but I remember the first time I went on at the beginning of Jan it went down for five minutes too.

Janet Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Gyre - I've added you. Hope that's okay. I thought that if I wrote a review it would come up in my library, but it didn't. I wonder where it went... ETA: I can see it when I click on reviews, but I thought it would be on my page too. Hmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
