I don't know if it's the way of the future but I do think it's a great way for fellow readers to come together on books or a genre they love and it makes the experience more richer for everybody.

IMHO, using Goodreads and forums and such to talk about books and reading is something completely different to having Facebook, Twitter, and in the future who knows directly integrated into the device, nagging you to post this or that when you start, fininsh, or buy a book.
That's not social reading. That's just free advertisements for the company/author in question.
