Has anyone used LibraryThing to catalogue their books? Or any other free catalogue, come to that. Opinions sought - I can no longer remember everything I’ve bought (can’t even remember where I’ve put my keys), so I need to do something to avoid buying duplicates.

I used to use LibraryThing but switched to GoodReads. There are pros and cons of both.

Thanks - I got the impression that Goodreads was more of a social thing than LT, is that right? Just interested in cataloguing, really.

You can just catalogue on GR, you don't have to be social at all.

Sounds like Fetch. You can use it just to record your runs, or you can spend most of your life chatting on it.

I resigned from GR awhile ago, but I can’t for the life of me remember why.
