Ways of organizing reading data

I’ve been playing around with a couple of different ways of organizing my around-the-world book reading list, and I’m also playing around with the various capabilities of my shiny new website.

One of the things I can create is a message board, so I did. Message boards have a particular way of organizing data into hierarchies that I find easy to use and “natural” (so far as anything computer related can be natural). Other types of interfaces, like wikis and blogs and documents take more work for the backbone, and still other types of interfaces, like databases, are simply beyond my level of achievement.

So I’m doing a board. If you have any interest in looking at it, holler. It’s something that would easily accomodate any number of participants if anyone found value in it.

  1. I’m certainly curious to know what you’re doing with it. I’m currently using an Amazon wishlist as one way of keeping track of possible reading ideas, but that’s not ideal: it certainly isn’t going to scale well.
