I'm not sure if it's appropriate to mention this, but frankly that's what mods are for.
So,
Is everyone here also a member at goodreads.com? A complete stranger invited me to join a couple of months ago, and I've really enjoyed the site. You can list books you own, write reviews, chat with authors, what have you.
My favorite feature is the quote feature, where you can add quotes to your profile page. I have 10 pages of quotes right now. I know, I know, but I'm addicted to them and am unwilling to give them up.
Anyway, you can friend people on there (I'm robingoodfellow there too), and I have found that the booklists and reviews of friends have been handy in finding books that I would like to read, and discovering new authors. Unfortunately, I also fell in love with Oscar Wilde there.
Okay, no place is perfect.
Anyway, I recommend it as a useful tool to complement your kindle. And on a related note:
