Making lists of DVD’s, CD’s, games, and other media seems to be a popular activity these days. While it’s necessary for organizational purposes, it’s also a rather hip, nerdishly posh gesture which points to exquisite taste and a high cool factor, if you have the goods to match of course. With JunkLog, not only can you list every book and magazine that you’ve ever read or owned, every song you’ve played/heard, every movie you’ve watched, among other things, you can also rate and rank each item for future reference. Not only that, the site’s set up so you can share your lists with your pals and monitor their own media habits, getting recommendations from people you know rather than complete strangers. To start, sign up for an account and simply begin logging from there.
“It's a site for logging and rating what you've read, watched, listened to and played.
I wanted an easy way to log the books I had been reading similar to what John Walkenbach has been doing on his J-Walk blog.
When I thought about it I decided I wanted something that was similar to del.icio.us but for media such as books and movies. That way I could monitor my friends' media habits and get recommendations from people I trust instead of relying on the random reviews from strangers on sites like Amazon and Metacritic and so on.”
