I use LibraryThing primarily to keep track of books I read for our weekly radio show, BookTalk. I also have used it to get book ideas. I can "see" people who've read a lot of the same books I have, so I look at their lists for other titles.
That's a good idea--using it to keep track of books for a particular project. Does it create any sort of RSS feed of titles as you add them by any chance?
Cool--I didn't know that. One could use something like Feedburner I think and use it to post a list of recently read books to a blog, wiki, or other web page.

Hi Kit:
What do you like best about LibraryThing? I haven't used it a lot myself.
(by the way, the URL didn't seem to be made live in your post--you will want to create the live link. Hard to explain--maybe someone can show you).
Cheers!
Connie

Yes -- there are three options for RSS feeds:
1. Recently-added books
2. KitKeller's reviews
3. Reviews of kitkeller's books, not including kitkeller's reviews

Nice. Thank you, Kit.
