Oh and I heard about a good site on CBS news this morning - entitled "goodreads.com" where you can critique a bunch of books you've read and it will generate other recommended books that fit your critique that others have read. Or something like that. Haven't tried it yet.

There's an LJ community (http://community.livejournal.com/goodreads/profile) like that as well.

This is a bit different - in that you can rate the books you've read, write reviews, mention ones currently reading and read others - it's more like a database, reminds me a little of that library thing that was so popular for a while but requires less time and effort.

Yep, I ended up wasting two hours on that site. Another distraction I really don't need right now - lj is bad enough. Honestly, the internet is a horrid distraction when you are trying to write. What I need is a separate laptop for writing that is not hooked up to the net.
