I was a member a while back, then quit, and just joined again. But there is still room for one dedicated just to poetry book reading and recommendations, since the big group is more news and chat.Julie Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06878713173193835861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9144957.post-47833410502277250522008-06-16T20:31:00.000-07:002008-06-16T20:31:00.000-07:00Julie -- I just started the Poetry group without m...Julie -- I just started the Poetry group without much of a clue as to what I want to do with it, so it's wide open for ideas. Come on by and help create the group. <BR/><BR/>And everyone else too -- Sarahjane, please do come into the group and help create its mission.<BR/><BR/>Blue -- I didn't know Facebook had that problem, but it makes sense. All those high-traffic places make me suspicious.<BR/><BR/>Karen -- I'll take a look at Library Thing. I wonder if there's a book swap site along these lines? I'd love to clean up my literal shelves, while setting up my virtual ones. I'm drowning in books!Rachel Dacushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15754712503067644226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9144957.post-88904345327583182652008-06-16T11:48:00.000-07:002008-06-16T11:48:00.000-07:00Hi Rachel -I also prefer Good Reads to Facebook.

I just can't keep up on the latter, but Good Reads is really interesting. <BR/>(I also tried Library Thing, but after 200 books you have to pay, and I need a good reason to do that.)<BR/>I saw the poetry group you started, and plan to join.<BR/>cheersSarahJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497062670296130228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9144957.post-20691987853388110032008-06-16T06:10:00.000-07:002008-06-16T06:10:00.000-07:00Rachel -- You should also try Library Thing...that...Rachel -- You should also try Library Thing...that's my favorite!Karen J.

But I didn't quit facebook, I just don't use it all that often.<BR/><BR/>I was invited to join shelfari a while ago and did so. So when people started asking me to join goodreads I thought, "I don't have time for this. "<BR/><BR/>It's all getting to be too much. What with you-tube, myspace, shelfari, goodreads and a half dozen other 'social' networks to choose from who is to know which is the right venue or even if there IS a right venue. <BR/><BR/>Think I'll just stick to blog reading.<BR/><BR/>-blueBeau Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01570982615331590643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9144957.post-936657904454254742008-06-14T13:37:00.000-07:002008-06-14T13:37:00.000-07:00I've been on Goodreads for a while now, but I've o...I've been on Goodreads for a while now, but I've only just started putting my poetry reads on there.
