He hopes to develop it for cataloging all forms of media. (DVD, Books, Games, Etc.) GOTD had an offer back in December to a movie cataloging program &#38; it may repeat. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1532#post-9460 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 19:26:47 +0000 clobermier 9460@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Ah, darn it. They already came up with an interactive site that allows you to put in all sorts of collections. I sure couldn't find one earlier, so I'm glad you were able to find Listal. It looks like an interesting site. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1532#post-9459 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 17:17:43 +0000 ender 9459@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Hi Cindy<br /> thanks alot for your links, with the help of them, and some use of google, i actually found a site, that might be, what i am looking for:<br /> <a href="http://www.listal.com/about/" rel="nofollow">http://www.listal.com/about/</a></p> <p>i will have to look into that later, to see if there are other alike, (I like to see different interfaces, to see what i like most before i sign up) </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1532#post-9458 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 15:55:59 +0000 clobermier 9458@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Hi Ender,</p> <p>I've used Library Thing for years for cataloging my books. It's free up to a certain number of books, then if you want to add more you pay a small fee. I have so many more books than 200 that I paid. I don't use it, but Chasing the Frog has an online site for cataloging your movies.</p> <p>The links are: <a href="http://www.librarything.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.librarything.com</a> and <a href="http://www.chasingthefrog.com/catalog/" rel="nofollow">http://www.chasingthefrog.com/catalog/</a></p> <p>Both sites have that interaction between other members, where you can recommend or rate movies and books, and so on and so forth. I couldn't find any sites, though, that were set for both, or that would allow you to catalog any type of collection you had. Might be a good idea for someone to do that. I don't know if these are what you're looking for, but hope they help.</p> <p>Cindy </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/1532#post-9455 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 12:39:22 +0000 ender 9455@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I am actually not looking for a software, but for one of those web2.0 sites.<br /> does anyone here know of any english site, where you can enter all the movies, books and other things, that you have collect, and manage online?</p> <p>I saw a German site being linked yesterday , in some of my newsletter, but I would like to have a US version, as i am sure, it exists, since most German web.2 applications are *adapted* from the US ones. </p> <p>something like this, only completely online:<br /> <a href="http://www.findfiles.com/2597/details-collectorz-com-movie-collector.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.findfiles.com/2597/details-collectorz-com-movie-collector.html</a></p> <p>and not just for movies, but as i said , books, and other things as well. </p> <p>thanks for any help. </p>
