Three Great Websites for Organising Your Personal Library
Over the weekend I built an application that lets my wife easily manage here personal library of books. Armed with a barcode scanner, she can quickly zap her collection and automatically add full book details into her personal website. It’s still a work in progress, so isn’t really available for public consumption.
Of course, this is already available in existing websites, as I later found out from @sleepydumpling who suggested LibraryThing, Shelfari, and GoodReads.
They all look like great apps for organising and sharing your library online, so I thought I would mention them.
According to @sleepydumpling, GoodReads is easiest to use, Shelfari is the prettiest and LibraryThing has more Australian content.
At least now I have the code to build and manage my own library easily, which I can reuse on other projects :)
