Good Reads

my 'read' shelf:
 my read shelf


Trying to do Thing 11 so if this link doesn't work I will try my best to fix it. I love the Good Reads website and I think it's a good resource for all of us in libraries cause we can see what other peeps all over are reading. I think it will be pretty time consuming at first but once I get lots of books entered it shouldn't take much time to keep it updated. I'm trying to be a little creative with my shelves so it will be easy for people to see genres they like to peruse. Some of the books are difficult to put in groups so I like that one book can be in different shelves. I had a hard time making new custom shelves because the page doesn't change it just kind of updates but other than that Good Reads seems pretty straightforward. I like the quotes feature and might add it to this blog since I have tons of quotes I've collected over the years. I like that we did Flickr before this since it gives us some practice with copying and pasting stuff and doing links, etc. I still get ill and irate sometimes when working with all this new stuff but I think that is mostly due to my desk location. It's a little challenging to be learning and expanding my mind when I'm interrupted every second but I'm working on it so the death count is low for now.
