LibraryThing was very cool! I would use this to keep a list of books that I want to read. I often find myself hearing about a really good book, but don't write it down so I forget the name and author. Reading isn't one of my favorite things so I don't know about a lot of books. Now as soon as I hear of one, I can put it on my list. I also noticed that there are sections on the home page listing most added books, recently added, etc. (giving me an idea of what some popular books are). As a student, I remember getting reading lists in my English classes. Instead of handing out a list with only the book titles, teacher could create a list and have his/her students go to the site to look at them. This way the students could read about the book and look at the reviews other readers have posted.
