what is goodreads?
Goodreads is the largest social network for readers in the world. We have more than 3,300,000 members who have added more than 98,000,000 books to their shelves. A place for casual readers and bona-fide bookworms alike, Goodreads members recommend books, compare what they are reading, keep track of what they’ve read and would like to read, form book clubs and much more. Goodreads was launched in December 2006.
our mission
Goodreads’ mission is to get people excited about reading. Along the way, we plan to improve the process of reading and learning throughout the world.
why we do it
Let’s make reading fun again. Somehow, reading books seems to have gotten a bad rap. People are working too hard and not making time to read, people are watching TV because they can veg out and turn their brains off—hey, we feel it too! But every once in a while you run into a friend who tells you about this “great new book I’m reading.” And suddenly you’re excited to read it. It’s that kind of excitement that Goodreads is all about.
how we do it
Most book recommendation websites work by listing random people’s reviews. On Goodreads, when a person adds a book to the site, all their friends can see what they thought of it. It’s common sense. People are more likely to get excited about a book their friend recommends than a suggestion from a stranger. Our members also create trivia about books, lists of the best books, post their own writing and form groups and book clubs.

Seen Avatar, the James Cameron movie? Can’t wait to become an avatar yourself and look like one of the blue-skinned, green-eyed humanoid species of the Na’vi tribe living on Pandora? Then here’s your chance. The official Avatarize Yourself generator allows you to upload your picture and get Avatarized. You can also choose between different Pandora-staged backgrounds, and even change your gender (yikes!).
Happy St Georges Day !!!!
Hello again, after completing S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shadow of Chernobyl i stumbled upon a mod for the original game. In short this is the world of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. like you’ve never seen before, with updated graphics and added functionality that don’t change the original story or gameplay. The game hasn’t been changed beyond recognition, but rather enhanced while preserving the core elements that made it the unique experience is it.
