Flex Your Personal Library
Posted by Nick O'Neill on June 19th, 2007 9:45 AM
Edward Frederick of Washington, D.C. has created a pretty useful application for listing your personal book collection. This follows the trend that I previously discussed in which users within the ’social graph” will list all of their personal belonging and brands that they feel attached to. It will become a natural form of purchase by referral. This will eventually lead to applications that aggregate this information to determine “What people are reading now” or “What clothing brands are hip”, etc. I think that this personal bookshelf is a great way for people to get to know you as well since checking out a person’s personal library can be extremely revealing. Easily populate your virtual bookshelf by browsing the Amazon library and adding your items. One recommendation I would make for this application is they should add a full description including title, author, and publication date. Aside from that, this application is definitely cool and I will be keeping this one on my profile for the time being. If you want to show-off your own personal library, go grab the bookshelf application.

I spent a lot of time struggling with all of the undocumented f8 platform stuff, especially with respect to notifications and invitations, etc.
Now that I've put that behind me, I'm reading to really start cleaning up some of the UI and adding features.
Please keep the feature requests rolling in!
Cheers,
Eddie
