Personal Library Online

	Comparison	Library Thing	Shelfari	Details
	Book Shelf	Can be list, with columns, or cover pictures	Cover pictures, on shelf – large or small	Can see detail info on Library thing but do I want to see that or just know its there?
	Sort order of book shelf	Sort by clicking on each column – ex. Author	Pull down menu gives you sort options
	Tags	Yes	No – Make that Yes. They just aren’t that easy to find at first.	Librarything/Shelfari doesn’t assume a space means another tag. I entered Istanbul Turkey and that’s one tag
	Search function	Not as good as Amazon – couldn’t find Suite Francais	Didn’t have a problem finding Suite Francaise	I don’t really understand why Library Thing didn’t find it since it seems to find books on Amazon – that’s the first place it looks
	Search continued	Can add only one book at a time	If search for author returns multiple books you can select several for your shelf at once.	I added a few books on Library Thing accidentally because I thought I was reviewing book, not adding. Shelfari function buttons are big and easy to use
	See other’s book shelves	In my profile, I have a window that shows other people with my same books. I click on them and see more books like mine that I forgot. Helpful	I didn’t see the same feature.
	Tools	Export	Export	LT has link to Vox but it’s nothing great.
	Tools continued	Many more functions but not sure how useful – some in beta
	In General	Started out with LT but find the interface bland compared to Shelfari	Functionality a little delicate and slow to respond. I’ve gotten different tag screens by accident	Both need some work. Considering transferring my library to Shelfari from LT

FEED is Finished

This is an amazing book. Its like someone's (Andersons) creative mind put on paper in the form of a nonstop stream of consciousness. It all happens so fast you can almost imagine Anderson did this in one long 30 hour stint and then he crashed.

It reminded me of a series of sci fi books I read as a teen - the white mountains I think - in which the feed, or in this case the mesh cap, is not properly installed on some humans and they are trying to save the world from these robots. Unfortunately, in Feed, Violet doesn't save the normal people, she dies as a result of the feed. And our "hero" doesn't ease her departure.

The scary thing about Feed is that when you are sitting on your computer, looking at all the feeds coming in on Bloglines and you start trying to read them and keep up with what your colleagues are doing and the latest technology etc, you become mesmerized and hours disappear. If life didn't intrude once in a while, you'd stay on the computer forever. But maybe we will reach that point when life and bloglines merge and you sign up for a feed that sends food, and one that sends homework assignments and your new job feeds your next project from your boss and you no longer need to leave your house......

and then you forget about life before and you just go mal once in a while for fun
