Billmonk with Public Library

posted 02:14PM May 18, 2006 with tags book library sharing web20 by Lars Trieloff

Gaurav Oberoi of Billmonk just commented on the entry How to manage book lending and borrowing web-2.0-style? that Billmonk now features public library sharing. More details can be found at the billmonk weblog.

Of all three applications (Billmonk, LibraryThing and Stuffopolis), Billmonk is the most polished one and the one I'd like to use for borrowing and lending books, but when it comes to social application features like tagging and finding taste neighbors, LibraryThing is clearly superior.

There is one important feature I am still missing from the Billmonk website: It is an RSS feed of recent changes made to my library. Together with my friend's libraries this can be aggregated into a common library feed for a team.

Comments:

Both Librarything and Stuffopolis support RSS feeds for changes to inventory. Stuffopolis (formerly SuperBorrowNet), although certainly not polished looking, has the most superior and well-thought out lending system.
