  • Owen Van Natta, Facebook's chief operating officer, said a visit to Amazon.com will uncover all the product recommendations one might want but the value can be limited in the anonymity of the people posting the reviews. On the other hand, if you take your online activities and put them through the filter of the people you know well, those actions take on greater meaning.

      This is exactly what I have been saying about the web for a long time, and especially recently. We need intersection of real and virtual worlds. I use the internet to connect with people I know. Connecting with random people is only marginally useful and usually novelty. Facebook, however, has a long way to be what it could be... or rather what I want from the web. An extension of, and motivation force for, community. Connections with people I know.
  • All of this works, Mr. Van Natta said, because Facebook inhabits the intersection of the web and real life, and its connections are between real people who know each other.

    This is a really cool bookshelf service.  It has a lot of ajax and a lot of social networking features.  It is entirely based visually around bookcovers.  You can create a widget to put in your website or blog that show your virtual book covers on your virtual bookshelf.  It is really nice looking.  I am interested to hear from Librarything users how they think it compares.

    I created a group called "quorum" in Shelfari. I think it would be interesting for a group of people to start using Diigo, this Shelfari thing (if people like it) and other really cool services and exploit them for all they can do. Right now it seems to me that very few services are actually used for what they can do. Very fragmented...

    You can check out the little widget from shelfari that you can put into your blog or website. It shows my actual bookshelf, virtual book covers on a virtual bookshelf. Pretty neat if you ask me. I like the idea of moving away from straight text as I tend to get texted out on the internet. Scroll down towards the bottom, after the blog posts, where I list all the books I´ve recently read. http://taylorandmore.blogspot.com/ Oh, and here´s my "shelf" on Shelfari, if you´re interested in checking out what it looks like before you sign up. http://www.shelfari.com/bananahandsome/shelf
