Thing 19 Sites from Web 2.0 Awards List

This is amazing-over 200 Web2.0 sites in 41 categories. Category of books had two sites-biblio.co
for out of print books and librarything.com for what to read next and lots more. My exploration of library thing revealed such features as good recommendations on what to read next as well as "unsuggestions" of books I would not like. I created a catalog of books by list and by cover art, by author, title subject and rating. Site encourages tags and blogs. I disliked the persuasive language they used to attempt to get users to post a profile and to join or form groups.
In a library setting, this could to useful to book discussion groups.
