Good stuff dude. Check out the number of users.. 2.5k odd in a few days is neat!

There is a bunch of feedback on the reviews section on the application page. You should go and post something there in reply to all that for the next person who comes to post something similar.

Yep.. it ain't too difficult for me to get hourly stats on the numbers ;-)

iRead Booklist anonymous June 11 2007, 15:11:44 UTC

The search function is either not very useful or the booklist is not very complete. I am currently reading:

Napoleon and Wellington: The Long Duel (Paperback)
by Andrew Roberts (Author)

* Publisher: Weidenfeld & Nicholson history (1 May 2003)
* Language English
* ISBN-10: 1842127403
* ISBN-13: 978-1842127407

I realise this might not be populist fiction, but it is a site primarily for graduates. Are there plans to upload a greater database of books?

hey, I came across your journal after using iRead on facebook. I love it, I've always looked for a way to motivate myself to continue a book list and...couple with my facebook addiction, I think I finally will update my book list regularly, so, thank you!

one suggestion though, I don't like how all the books are grouped together. It would be a lot easier to have separate lists for the books you've read, want to read, and are reading. and when you read/finish a book, you can just move it to the read list. do you know what I mean? Is that possible for a future development?

Thanks again!

Thanks a ton.
I am glad that you liked the app & this comment means a lot to me.

Happy users is all an application developer wants :)

We will let you organize your books by reading status very soon.

Thanks again.

Keep iReading ( & do spread the word :) )

be ready for growth bhati June 15 2007, 15:45:27 UTC

Nice application, I would suggest to be ready for exponential growth, keep tuning servers & adding more hardware.
What about sharing bundles I like on Facebook?

Good to hear from you.
Heard you had health issue. ... ab sab theek I hope ?

Yes constantly monitoring slow queries, and system performance.

As for sharing bundles on facebook - dont want to get a commercial angle in at this point, but might be a useful feature.

Like iRead - add Librarything anonymous June 23 2007, 15:53:00 UTC

I just installed your application on facebook last night. Good start. But what I'd really like is if you could pull in my library of books that I've already entered on LibraryThing so that I don't have to reenter them into iRead.
