I have to agree whole heartedly. I rarely (if ever) searched in a REAL book (save of course a dictionary, thesaurus, or similar book).
And the WHOLE idea behind the social aspects is marketing. It's funny; many people say they don't want it, yet witness the popularity of the "What am I reading" thread.
