Library Thing

I feel that library thing is very interesting and was fun to play with for a few minutes but serves little purpose beyond this. I enjoyed searching for books and looking at "similar libraries" of other members. The site also had a huge amount of space provided for reviews, references, descriptions, and even recommendations. These were very useful for some books and gave the site the 2.0 feel. Although most of the books from my selection had little to no information. I understand this site is only meant to be a catalog and it does a great job at it. I think i just had my hopes up and was thinking maybe one could read books, or at least parts of books. As stated in the first sentence i feel this site was very interesting but i believe i could find just as much information on amazon.com while having more options regarding the book (buy, read excerpts, etc.)
