Library Thing

Well, that's quite exciting. I've just been signing up for a scheme called Library Thing which allows one to catalogue (or catalog since the site seems to be US based!) one's books. There's also a lovely wee widget feature which I'll fiddle about with later and include somewhere on this blog.

As I was trying to add in one of my books (McCarthy's Bar, of course) the search also brought up a book whose introduction is written by Pete McCarthy and which I also happen to own and enjoy. So I clicked on that to be my first "add." As a site [LibraryThing] with hundreds of thousands of users worldwide, I was excited to find that no-one else had the book in their list.

Always nice to be a pioneer!
