Social Networking for Readers

I know you’ve heard of social networking (Facebook, MySpace, Digg, StumbleUpon, etc.) If you’re like me and haven’t found a place you really like, then you may want to check out this site.

Goodreads

It’s a site for readers to track what they’ve read, are reading, and plan to read. You can find people who’ve read the same things and even compare book lists to see how similar your tastes are. If you’re interested, I’m Cornerscribe there. Look me up.

So far, I’m please with the site’s ease of use, and the ease with which you can find people to talk with about what you’re reading. If you’ve ever wished you had time for a book group, this site may be a good substitute.

I heard about them on NPR, but there are other book lover’s sites out there too. I haven’t tried any others, so I can’t speak to how they work.
