googleの書籍管理ツールMyLibrary

以前からLibraryThingといた書籍管理ツールがあるけれども、googleはGoogle Book Searchで使える書籍管理ツールMyLibraryを発表した。MyLibraryはgoogleのCustom Search Engineをベースにしたもので興味ある書籍を収集してコレクションをつくり、タグ付け、シェアリングなどを行えるほか、RSS書き出しが可能となっている。

Rick Prelinger has voiced concerns that this service co-opts aspects of LibraryThing: "Google has rolled out My Library, which looks a lot like a skeletal version of LibraryThing plus an anonymous corporate skin and minus community spirit." As he rightly points out, Google's MyLibrary lacks a level of community participation present in LibraryThing; on the other hand, MyLibrary provides a level of in-collection full-text searching that a bibliographically-based aggregator like LibraryThing cannot provide.
