Interoperable Personal Libraries and Ad Hoc Reading Groups

We would need a system that enables people to:

  • Publish a list of books they would be willing to discuss with other people to the open web. Antilibraries – collections of books you haven't read yet but would like to read – are particularly well suited to this proposition.
  • See which books people in their social network want to discuss, and/or subscribe to other people's lists
  • Be notified when 4+ people in their network have the same book on their discussion list – possibly via an email thread?
  • Coordinate and schedule a time to read and discuss the book with that group.
