OK, OK, after several years of thinking about it, I finally joined Library Thing and started listing my books. I'm listed under "wordnerdy" so if you're on it, add me as a contact! I look forward to perusing your libraries as I keep adding books to mine.

All I want to know: DID YOU BUY THE CUECAT?!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CueCat
Talk about your fuzzy memories: I *think* I actually owned one, and monkeyed around with it for about ten minutes before deciding that I wasn't going to be scanning things in periodicals just so I could quickly get to some web page or another.
LibraryThing says they bought just 100 cuecats. But any article in the press about LibraryThing mentions the cuecats, so I wonder if this is one of those asymmetries between (a) the thing everyone ("in the know") finds interesting to read about but (b) doesn't actually use/buy.
No, and I'd never even heard of Cuecats till you linked that!
I do know or know of people who bought library scanners to scan their books into librarything or similar programs, but they were just regular scanners, not cat-shaped ones.
