GoodReads.com

I only just discovered goodreads.com in a blurb from World magazine (below). It's great for organizing your reading wish list, keeping track of books you liked, and finding good books. You can find booklists by authors or friends that you know. Douglas Wilson, for example, has rated 1681 books and (briefly) commented on 1357. If you join (or know of a better such forum), please let me know.

Here's the blurb from World: Goodreads, the popular social networking and library cataloguing website for bibliophiles, has released a free iPhone app. Search for books and categorize them in custom virtual bookshelves. Catalog the books you've read, are currently reading, or plan to read in the future. Rate and review books, or start a virtual book club. Don't have an iPhone? You can do all this on the Good­reads website as well (goodreads.com). — Alissa Wilkinson
