Thing 14(no2) and 15...

I think I know now what happened to Thing 12...It seems that SLA lists two Thing 14's.  You would think that they would be able to figure this out.  Anyway, Thing 14 (no2) is to build a bookshelf on LibraryThing.  I already have a bookshelf on Living Social's Visual Bookshelf, but I did it anyway.  The objective was to add at least 5 books, so I added the stack of YA novels sitting next to me that I have already read but not yet reviewed for Materials for Young Adults.  Here is the link to my Library Thing.  And in case someone actually cares,  the link to my Visual Bookshelf.

It also suggests you can explore Shelfari and some other similar sites.  I think I may actually have an account on that one too.  I tried a few to decide which I liked best.  I never did decide though I guess.  I promise to pick one and load the books into it, but the trouble is it is hard to remember to go add every book that I read.  I will try to keep them up though.

Oddly enough, Thing 15 is the Rollyo search engine site...Which if you have been reading, I already explored and deemed useless.  So I am not going to write about it again. But I will add, that after exploring it a bit more, I could see that it would be useful for writing an extensive paper, or a thesis perhaps.  Or researching for a book...but not for everyday use for me.  I will however admit that it does have a practical purpose, just no bearing on my life.
