I’m a little out of order here. I had to wait until I was home to add some books to my LibraryThing library – much easier when you can just look at the shelf. I really loved the LibraryThing interface. It was super simple and intuitive, really good design in my opinion. My only complaint is that a couple of things did not display properly in Safari. For instance, I tried to review a book, and the pop-up window appeared halfway out of my screen with no apparent way to move it down to where I could access it. I have to admit that, while I’ve searched it before and have certainly heard LOTS about it, this was my first time actually adding books to LibraryThing. Somehow I didn’t realize or had forgotten that you can just look things up in Amazon or the Library of Congress, which is much easier than typing in all these manual entries! The keyword search worked well, and only let me down on one book. It was fun to go through a shelf and rediscover some of my collection, but jeez – it would be a whole lotta work to add all of my books. I do love that you can sort by author, title, LC classification, pretty much anything you want! And the cover displays are nice as well. Overall, I am really impressed.
