Geek Reading not functioning…

March 27, 2009 10:20 pm

You may notice that my Geek Reading page is not working right. That is due to issues with Open Library. The page runs off a plugin called openbook by John Miedema. Not being a fan of social networking sites I decided to try and find another alternative to librarything which is a social networking site for book lovers sorta like Lastfm is a social networking site for music lovers.

So I’m giving this open source wiki book library my space. The downside is I relay on it for data. If it does not work neither does my book list. It has been suggested that I do this in my database as it not a big thing. This is true, but then I would not be contributing to what I thing is a valuable service. Short story long. Geek Reading is not presently function 100%. Bear with me until Open Library get things back up and running.

Oh and if you have a book suggestion for us geek people please don’t hesitate to leave a comment with your title suggestions.
