Attn Shelfari users

[Patti (baconater)]

Don't know if anyone in our group uses Shelfari but apparently it's merging with Goodreads in March.

[Jud]

I haven't been on shelfari for years

[Jay-me (Janet)]

Some people were suggesting it as an alternative to here because of the font changes.

I looked at it a few years ago and decided it was too complicated.

[David]

I probably have an account there, but I have no idea which email address or password combination I would have used back when I set it up and I can't be arsed to find out.

I probably still have a Library Thing one too, if that is still going.

[Michael]

Shelfari is rubbish because no-one ever seemed to be on it.

Library Thing looks and feels incredibly basic.

[Patti (baconater)]

I've never looked at either.

There was a time when it was considered sensible as an author to bung your books on all of them, but the other two fell by the wayside as Goodreads took over.

I have memories of another one too that had better links into an earlier version of Facebook, back when we used to throw sheep at each other, but I can't remember what that one was called.

[Patti (baconater)]

Of course Goodreads took over.

We're here.

[Jim]

I think I looked at shelfari but walked away because it seemed too much effort for the number of people on it

[Joo]

I like the shelfari shelf widget on my blog :)

Ditto - but I'll leave my arse out of it.

Ah. I have to take mine everywhere with me, so I can talk out of it.

Shelfari is handy in that you can bung extra character, plot, location etc info on there, and it'll filter through to the Kindle's "Book Extras" for your book.

But like others, I haven't visited it in ages.

[Elle]

I used to keep up with Shelfari just to use the widget on various social media accounts I had. Then I legit just couldn't be bothered dealing with the ugly ass interface anymore. Horrid.

[Will]

I did join, as with Library thing, but haven't been there in ages. There's so few hours in the day.

That's the problem.

[Kay (Golden Girl)]

I also used Shelfari but got no idea what email address I used or password and have not used it for long time
