Responding to feedback

We'd like to thank all of you for the feedback we've received since our launch last week!  The overall tone has been very positive with a good mix of suggestions thrown in.  We're trying hard to reply promptly because we want you to have the best experience possible on Shelfari and also because we love to hear from you -- it helps us determine what we can improve and how better to serve the growing community!

Along these lines we've made a few commonly-requested updates:

• If you change the book cover size or sort order on a shelf it will be remembered when you view other shelves.  (This was one of the most-popular suggestions.)
• Two new sort orders: sort by star rating or by the number of opinions written about a book. Now you can more-easily see everyone's favorites or the most-popular books on their shelves.
• When you're signed in you'll see a link to "My Shelf" at the top of the page next to "Explore." This makes it easier to get back to your bookshelf from anywhere in Shelfari.

More changes are in the pipeline in response to your feedback, so please keep sending it in!

Thanks, and happy reading!

The Shelfari Team

the issue i'm most hesitant about is how Library Thing has integration into all of the book swap services.

do you guys plan on having this? when? (tell the truth).

thanks!

Hi,

I'm enjoying the Shelfari experience!

I was thinking it would be cool if you could organize books beyond the alpha, author, title...for example if you could put your most favorite books at the top of the list, on the top shelf. Perhaps even drag and drop the titles into place a la Netvibes/Pageflakes or rank them a la Youtube Playlist in the order you prefer. I have books I'd like to emphasize that end up lost in the crowd.

Thanks again for this service!
