Shelfari Plug In
Is there a way to transfer my non-Amazon books from Calibre to Shelfari?

This idea has arisen before; as Kiwidude said

Not impossible, but not much fun to write/maintain either.

w/o API one needs to basically replicate parts of the data of the calibre library *by hand* on the (painfully slow) Shelfari website - sure, I have nothing else to do... Goodreads is my friend now.
