Groundhog day book pile contest winners

Well, the groundhogs were divided, it's still snowy here in Boston, and yes, I was late in picking a winner to the Groundhog Day Book Pile Contest. Here we go!

Drumroll.... Congrats to our grand prize winner, paghababian, with "6 More Weeks of Reading". What can I say, I'm a sucker for shadow puppets.


And I have to give credit to someone who actually appreciates winter, so our runner up, with hedgehog style is "Hedge2" by compskibook.

See all the entries here on Flickr and on WikiThing.

Thanks, Abby! I didn't even think it would be in contention because it's not a typical bookpile.

Sorry I missed you at Simmons the other night!

LibraryThing,

I could not figure out how to leave my feedback elsewhere. I just logged on and found out that I am not able to add any more books as I have reached the "free limit" of 200 books. To enter more, I must subscribe for a yearly fee (probably auto renews unless I go and explicitly opt-out).

Unfortunately for you, I was not informed about the "free for the first 200 books" limit prior to my spending hours and hours entering the 211 books I could recall off the top of my head I had read. Perhaps your warning was "hidden" or intentionally non-obvious. For me, that is the same as not being informed. For you it is the same effect, I am departing your service.

I have absolutely no intention of paying you for the priviledge of my updating my own list of books. Are you freakin INSANE?! Good luck with your model (ROTFLMAO - still living in the 1990's with your charging models, I can see).

Just to be clear, I have deleted all of my books and intend for my account to go dormant.

Thank you for the great idea. I am saddened you chose to charge the $10 a month. I don't think I am the only client who feels this way. I am just one in a hundred that is vocal about my choice.

For a response to that comment, posted on ten blog posts, despite the fact that ever team member's email is posted on the blog and there are whole groups devoted to feedback, see http://www.librarything.com/blog/2008/03/all-things-considered-does-librarything.php .
