Hello zhopudey,

Have you heard of Librarything.com. Its a web 2.0 social networking site for books. It doesn't index your actual ebook files or anything but you can do so much with it.

You can create an account and list 200 books for free. You can enter the ISBN and it will go out and get the rest of the info for you including the cover art. There is even a way to scan books in by their UPC if you have the right type of scanner.

One of the coolest things about the site is that it will cross reference your library with others and you can check out their book list and you might find something else that you want to read. You can also type in a book name and it will give you suggestions of other books to read.

You can add tags to your books, reviews, and a whole lot more.

I know this isn't specifically for ebooks and it doesn't index any files on your PC but I thought you or others might like it.
