GoodReads.com and Bookpedia

[Kernos]

I would love for Bookpedia to be able to suck data from http://goodreads.com.

This links to their API: http://www.goodreads.com/api

Thanks for the links. We'll take a look at the API.

I'll happily second this request! Especially if it might mean moving away from some of the dependence upon Amazon and bringing Pocketpedia back to life (again...sigh)!

[Kernos]

Any news about this suggestion? It would be a major advantage for Bookpedia, as Amazon lacks a lot of data included in Goodreads records.

I have written to them asking for permission (required for a commercial product) and are waiting to see if we can include it in a future Bookpedia version.

[Kernos]

Did you ever hear back from Goodreads?

[Conor]

Unfortunately no, but now that you bring it up I shall send them another email.

Bump! I'd love to be able to use Bookpedia to catalog and Goodreads to sort online.

I second this request: brilliant software / great site

We've talked to GoodReads about an integration but their API model doesn't really work with Bookpedia since it includes a revenue share and there is no way for us to know how many users are actually going to use the GoodReads plug-in.
