Douban

Yet another service, which allows a user to create a library of books and music. The basic MicroContent type is the review, although a user can limit himself to just bookmark the item. Through a search function the user can find the link for a book or CD. I assume the relevant information is pulled from Amazon. For each item ithe user can set the reading status (has read, reading, want to), a rating (5 levels), tags, a short remark and a review (with spoiler warning if required). It is not possible to link to a single review, no permalink. There is a link to my library. The service is lacking import and output options at the moment (10-dec-05), but it is a very nice start.
