WikiThing

Sara Kramer of NYRB emailed me about my microsite idea this morning, and pointed out something cool that I didn’t know about: WikiThing, which is the Wiki page of LibraryThing.

In itself, maybe the WikiThing site isn’t that interesting for you, unless you’re into LibraryThing. However, there are a few user-generated pages on the wiki that are pretty cool even if you’re not into LibraryThing: I See Dead People’s Books, which “works to enter the libraries of famous dead people as LibraryThing catalogs”, and includes the libraries of Danilo Kis and Ezra Pound, among others; and the Literary Awards page, which links to more Literary Awards than anyone needs to know about.
