   Hi Liz,

   This looks like a great find. Thanks for sharing it. I bet I’m going to love this…
   Bookworm + online catalogues + sharing/networking = winning combination.

   I’ll try it out.

   Cheers!

   Hi Liz. Nice find. Thanks for sharing!

   I’ve got one for you. Take a look at DVD Profiler which is a great way to catalog your DVD movies.

   I’ve been using it for a while now and at some point I’ll have all my DVD’s cataloged but for now I have a few of them if you’re interested in checking out my list.

   Oh Sean,
   That’s nice! Maybe I’ll put that one up next week. We’ll have our virtual dream house dens decked out in no time. :)

   Indeed Liz. It’s really nice. You can even print out your entire catalog of DVD’s, so when people come over and they want to watch a movie, you can hand them a nifty guide to all your movies.

    Do come in.
    Please have seat.
    Your drink will be here momentarily.
    Do you have a movie choice this evening?
    Here’s a menu that you might select from.

    Too cool.

    As I was merrily entering a few of my books in the LibraryThing, I kept thinking about your library-with-each-book-in-a-separate-building analogy to describe life if the telecoms and cable guys neuter network neutrality.

    It was an Orwellian moment as I was secretly connecting the buildings to thwart AT&T’s attempt to keep me from reading something from Comcast’s list. We were using the LibraryThing to stick it to the man!

    How funny, Scott! I’ve got the visual complete in front of me. I’ll never be able to look at that picture again in the same way. You are silly evil!!!

    Hey, Les,
    Welcome and thank you for sharing your comparative review. Your review is thorough and unbiased as far as I can see. Looking through the comments tell me you must have done a great job, because you brought them running to talk about the features you didn’t mention. :)

    Thanks again!
