You've probably noticed the book cover in the sidebar on the right announcing staff recommendations. Our staff have been busy reading during the summer holidays and I've found this neat social network, a bit like Library Thing, called Listal. You can create your own catalogue of books, DVDs, CDs, then create interesting lists to share with the world & create widgets for your blog or website. I've gone with the standard book, DVD & CD recommendations (see webgurl's listal profile), however others have gotten creative and made lists of the 2010 Oscar nominations or banned/censored books. To advance to see the next book just click on the + sign, however the slideshow will advance on its own as well.
The book covers link to the Listal list, however I've moved the catalogue search box to be just under the cover so you can easily search for the titles.
I'm just deciding where to put the DVD & CD recommendation lists so you should see those appearing soon.
What do you think? Useful?
Cheers, Maryanne
