An IMDb for Books
darkgray writes "After years of reading books and never really knowing which books were, perhaps, the best out there, and in the meantime getting more and more impressed by sites like the Internet Movie Database, I decided to start a project of my own. I named it the Internet Book List, and now it needs people to vote on books they've read, and even more it needs dedicated people to submit books and author information. Help out Humanity: Add a Book!"
LOL - good call ;)
Smokey, this is not 'Nam, this is bowling. There are rules.
While everyone is complaining that Amazon already has a internet book rating archive. Where is the internet rating archive for Linux distributions and packages? Sure there are reviews for specific distros and packages, but no diffinitive source to see how many people are using specfic ones and what they say about it at a given time. Unless you count old /. polls. I'd also like to see some demographic information to correlate the statistics. I would expect users to change their vote to keep it relative to what they are actually running currently, that way when something new comes out the poll would reflect its true popularity.
