I cross post all my blogs there, and try to friend all the blogs I follow. This makes it so easy to find who else has reviewed the book, and see what they thought of it.Sarah Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10671051704990208661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069628911357973492.post-3513488034752795212011-06-29T13:39:24.589+01:002011-06-29T13:39:24.589+01:00I have signed up to goodreads, but don't use i...I have signed up to goodreads, but don't use it very much. I like to read the reviews of others, but I think it requires a lot of maintenence to create good recommendations and I have enough books added to my TBR through blogging already. <br /><br />I like twitter, but it is a big time suck. I find it most useful for chatting with other bloggers and keeping up to date with events in publishing. I suggest following as many people as you can think of and then just watching for a while - you should start to get the hang of it after watching for a bit.Jackie (Farm Lane Books)http://www.farmlanebooks.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069628911357973492.post-5578990394120665272011-06-29T12:05:47.320+01:002011-06-29T12:05:47.320+01:00Thanks everyone (and especially couchpotatocritic)...Thanks everyone (and especially couchpotatocritic) for the helpful comments - I feel much more clued up now!Falaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01296217731383114462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069628911357973492.post-27773306558116174102011-06-29T02:18:53.026+01:002011-06-29T02:18:53.026+01:00New to Twitter, huh?

There's lots you can do on Twitter, but I'd suggest starting off by <a href="http://support.twitter.com/groups/31-twitter-basics/topics/104-welcome-to-twitter-support/articles/215585-twitter-101-how-should-i-get-started-using-twitter" rel="nofollow">reading this FAQ</a>. It gives you a basic look at what Twitter is, how you can follow people, and what you can do with it.<br /><br />I'd also suggest that you follow @1book140 -- it's a book club on Twitter. Every month members of the club vote for what to read, and then the discussions roll from there. You can <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2011/06/everything-you-need-to-know-to-participate-in-our-book-club/239726/" rel="nofollow">read more about 1book140 here</a>.<br /><br />As for Goodreads...it's really up to you. I keep track of my books using Listography and Bookpedia, but a lot of readers rely heavily on the reviews when making decisions. I haven't used Goodreads much yet, but <a href="http://thenewdorkreviewofbooks.blogspot.com/2011/06/amazon-vs-b-vs-goodreads-rating-ratings.html" rel="nofollow">this post</a> posits that the reviews at Goodreads are far superior to those on sites like Barnes and Noble and Amazon. Worth a read, for sure.<br /><br />Hope I haven't overwhelmed you with info. Happy reading, and I hope you find the links helpful!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069628911357973492.post-62530323076337218142011-06-28T22:47:27.478+01:002011-06-28T22:47:27.478+01:00I actually used this weeks' meme to create a m...I actually used this weeks' meme to create a masterlist of great bookish sites for myself, updating as I went along.

I've...I have Fantastic Fiction on my list too!<br /><br />I've just gotten onto Goodreads in the spring, so I'm finding my way around. But, being a book list geek, I love tracking my books on there (I'm still in the process of adding them all). There is also a link where you can sign up to try and win books and there are groups of all sorts if you're interested in socializing about books & bookish topics. I like reading the reviews and seeing what some of my non-blogging friends are reading.Bev Hankinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127476456755776574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069628911357973492.post-67671607678194197052011-06-28T19:17:29.313+01:002011-06-28T19:17:29.313+01:00I love Goodreads to keep track of my books, but I&...I love Goodreads to keep track of my books, but I'm a huge book hoarder and have that many that I need some help remembering what I bought 2 years ago and still haven't read. I have a lot of non-blogger friends on there so it's nice to keep track of what they're reading too. Some people use the groups a lot on there and there's giveaways (a few gems amongst the self-published masses).Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14377404526123600035noreply@blogger.com
