I never went mobile with goodreads, because I didn't like the apps, they seemed restricted more than the website was, but I did like keeping tabs on my few acquaintances on there (my second cousin, 30 years younger than I, seems to have similar tastes in books so I have got quite a few recommendations from him, when he isnt being a computer nerd).

I dropped my goodreads account but may reinstate it, in time (or rather, get a new one). Interestingly I seem to still have shelfari but have found that useless.

Shelfari isn't bad IF you can find a good group there. And that's hard because most of them are quiet. I'm on a good sci/fi fantasy one that I enjoy. Small but some book discussions and active enough without being overactive. The cozy ones I'm on ... I just haven't hit it off there. It could be because I am not reading enough cozies right now to really participate or find like-readers. Or it could be I'm on too many groups and that one just hasn't been enough of a draw.

Here's the shelfari group I do enjoy:

Feel free to check it out and ignore us at will. I get some good recs there and it's well-moderated.
