Data from a buddy of mine:
Here is (most) of my library, on-line! I used this fascinating (and
inexpensive) tool called "Readerware" that lets you scan a book's barcode,
then which crawls on the web and pulls in all the data it can find on it.
Still have 100 or so more books to catalog. (as they turn up in my garage.)

Subject: "my books" web site?
Does anyone know of a web site with a full ISBN catalog of
books where you can build a "my books" collection?
I'm thinking of something similar to the "My Movies" section
of <http://www.imdb.com> or the "DVDs I Own" section of
<http://www.tvshowsondvd.com>.
Amazon gives you a checkbox that says "I own it", but no way
to list all the books you've marked as such. I think they
only use this for product suggestions and don't let you build
a collection list on their site.
There seem to be software products devoted to book
collectors, but I'm looking for something really simple.
Any suggestions?
