It's so funny that this website showed up today. I have been reading teen lit all summer and have been writing in a journal my reviews. I was thinking that I should set up a web site where I could organize all of this information but wasn't sure how and even if I wanted to spend that time on the project. Perusing the Library Thing website made me see the value and the fascination with my lists and the recommendation lists of books that would be generated. Still not sure if I will take the time right now to do it. I also have quite a thing going at Amazon with my wish lists and recommendation lists et al. If there is one thing that I am discovering about all of this social media research it is that there are numerous ways to organize your web life that intertwines with your "real" life and that it can get mighty time consuming! I do think that the site is cool though and I loved the fact that I can see at a glance all of the media "goings on" in the Bay Area. I changed my search from San Francisco to Walnut Creek so this side of the Bay would be highlighted. Glad to see there are still quite a few independent booksellers around the Bay Area.
I know that I will revisit this site and that I will be using it sometime in the future. I just have a thing for books and libraries :-)
