iRead - is an application that I built with

jyothirmayee

over the last 5 days.

Its been an incredible experience. Getting something decent & usable up in a short while, and then to see user adoption, get reviews, work on features that users request….  Absolutely fantastic experience

iRead is a simple idea. Mark your books. See what your friends are reading. Share books that you really like.
The applications beyond this are immense & we are just scratching the surface.
Ratings & tags come 1st to mind.
biggest book-o-phile’s, Most read books by your friends, users like you (based on the books you have read) …  I can go on ..

Facebook has done a wonderful thing by opening up their api & create a massive platform.
I have always believed that social networks are a platform, you need to have a lot more activity built around it except for adding a friend & messaging a friend.
Classifieds, reviews about any & everything, suggestions, lending stuff, all of these work much better in a social network.
I’ll post about Facebook - and why I believe they are onto something massive.

For now, let me spread the word about my baby - iRead
Please do try it guys, and share it with your friends on facebook.

And do send me all feedback ( good & bad )
