A curious site. I added a bunch of books to my page: http://www.librarything.com/catalog/CCPageLand
but I'm not really sure what this does for me other than offering me a rather comprehensive central search engine site for books. I mean, to quote from their blog, 2/2/08, "WSJ Does the Library Thing":
"It's this ocean of stuff—books you have, books you don't, book reviews, people who read books you do, conversations about books, authors showing off their books and their libraries, book stores, publishers, etc."
And I've asked myself the question, why do I care about any of that? And I have yet to find a reason to justify answering in the afirmative.
Don't get me wrong, I love books, but I just don't see me wading in this "ocean of stuff".
