I was wondering if anyone has any software or even just a good system for tracking new releases from favorite authors? I really hate the inefficient system I have going right now and am hoping there is a better alternative out there.
I find myself reading much more voraciously after discovering ebooks. It got to the point I had to make a list of authors I want to keep track of so I don't forget them. The list is a bit unwieldy, my current system is to bookmark the author's amazon page and periodically go through the list and "sort by publication date" to see if any new books have come out or are nearing release. This does not seem like an efficient system and is a bit frustrating. It is particularly the case when an author has older books re-released. Many times I have been given false hope of new works, only to have the joy dashed after verified to be a previously read book re-released. That system has also resulted in books I was anxiously awaiting to be out for a month or two before I noticed.
I have looked into this in the past with out finding much luck, but the way technology moves...I figure others must be getting slammed by this issue too...someone will see the opportunity and devise something for us. Heck it is practically the future!
