Library Thing: Where Books Meet Web 2.0

I don't have enough books in my classroom that this would be useful to me , but I can see how it would be beneficial in the regular classroom. Teachers could use this to catalog their classroom library. Students could then use LibraryThing to look for books in the classroom. I can however see myself using it in my personal life. It's great how books are categorized in different ways to help you locate them. I also like that you can get information about local libraries, bookstores, book signings, and other events in your area.
