LibraryThing is an interesting site that lets you add titles you have read or are interested in reading. The feature of recommending titles is useful. Each time you return to the home page new recommendations will appear on the page.
Adding the listing of books to a library site is a good use for the site. The visual approach would appeal to teens. Students could even create the lists from books they have enjoyed reading. The site could also be used for students to track the books they read over the course of the school year. Being a visual learner myself it seems that this would be an interesting way for students to watch their reading list grow.
While working on blogging I went back and added books to the library listing. The books that were added are automatically added to the posting below. I like the functionality of the site and the potential uses.
