#11 (Week 5) Take a Look At Library Thing

It was easy to set up a Library Thing account and really cool to use. It is a bit like Amazon.com where you can also review books and find similar titles you might like and connect to other users. Library Thing is a great way to keep track of the books you have read or would like to read, and is similar to the virtual book shelf offered by Facebook called Living Social which is an application you can add to your account. Library Thing has good suggestions going on what books and authors you have added to your lists. It is a great tool for librarians to use in all aspects of their work and would be a great website to recommend to customers. I was intrigued by the "Early Reviewers" scheme where you can sign up to receive free books to review so I might give it a go!
