You can add books one at a time, or many at a time. There are a ton of places that Bookpedia is willing to search for information on your books including all the Amazon sites, the Library of Congress, AngusRobertson, (an Australian bookseller) and even the Royal Library of Sweden.

Impressions.Īs you can see, Bookpedia (in this example), is awesome. See my post about Apple’s font panel, for instance. Bloggers like to focus on vaporware and betas because, ultimately, we like to complain. Bruji, on the other hand, seems to release updated builds fairly frequently– and for free, giving them no time to hype up the latest paid point release that took a year to add in minor functionality. From what I understand, the delay between DL 1.6 and 2.0 was massive, which gave him (Shipley) a lot of time to build his product up and hype the beta releases and whatnot. Now, I don’t know why Bruji’s Pedias don’t get any coverage on The Unofficial Apple Weblog or Daring Fireball, but my gut feeling is that Bruji can’t hype its own releases the way developers like Wil Shipley can. While my last entry covered Delicious Library 2, I feel compelled now to talk about far better product(s) that just don’t get the hype they deserve, Bruji’s Pedias. My things are scattered in boxes, strewn throughout multiple houses and ultimately divided by some 5000 or so miles, as far as my current situation in Japan is concerned. It was another great use for a great machine and infinitely useful for someone like me who’s been moving around (between houses, states, and countries, even) every year for the last 6 years of my life.

I liked the idea, a way of cataloging one’s media on the computer. I bought this MBP back in October and initially discovered Delicious Library through some of the folks on the MacHeist site. If there’s anything Delicious Monster (of Delicious Library) does well, its advertising. And the end result? Me spending more money. Now, I’m not sure how he found that post– what pond he’s dipping his net into, but it inspired me to get in gear and take the Pedias through their ‘paces. Just when I thought nobody was reading this blog, I get a comment from Conor, the “Top Dog” over at Bruji’s site telling me to post my impressions of the Pedias (CD, DVD, etc.) when I got a chance.
