    I used to read only physical books, but when I got into audiobooks I noticed I had a digital trail of the books I was reading. I started to recording them in a spreadsheet. Eventually I was able to bring that into Goodreads as a way to get algorithmic recommendations based on past reading habits. I do not see that works very well, however. Bookwyrm seems to work differently. It is more of a social network and it helps you find new books to read by finding other readers with similar interests to yourself.

      One thing I do not need is more recommendations of what to read, my list is bottomless. Do you find it encourages you to read more or read differently? Has it given you any insights about your habits?
