More Social Reading

So I've poked around a bit and I think that I am going to stay away from Goodreads. I am not interested in sharing that much data with Amazon, who bought the company last year. I'm going to try LibraryThing instead, because:

• They're older
• They seem to handle the nerdy-librarian cataloging side of things better
• There is less emphasis on "social"
• While Amazon does have a stake in the company (due to buying Abe Books), it is still majority controlled by the original programmer of the site.
• They are based out of Maine, which is basically America's New Brunswick.

(More comparison of the two.)

So yeah, I'll try it out if I have the time.
