Location: Boston, MA		Right now the process involves searching for the book, clicking the picture, and marking as read, tagging, and rating. This has to be done with each book, over and over again ad nauseum.

I'd love to have a feature where a "Mark as Read" option was available next to the cover art of a title, which can be updated all at once with one button press. Thanks for the great site!

Yeah, that's one of our top requests and very high on our list.  We've got some other dominos that have to fall into place first so hang in there with us, it's coming.

Glad to hear you like the site and welcome aboard!

An 'import' function from other reading sites (such as GoodReads) would be very useful in this regard. I've spent a lot of time getting as many books from my reading history set up on there, I don't want to go through it again on another site.

I realise that's not as easy as it sounds though!

Location: Cheshire, England		Wondering how far you've got with this little project, seeing as the question was asked a good 18 months ago?

I hate to say this but there has been no movement on this project.  The free time to get this done is just nowhere to be found unfortunately.   We haven't given up, it's still on the list at any rate, but unless something changes with work and family obligations it doesn't look good right now.

Location: Cheshire, England		Had a thought. You know when you've got the list for the WOGF authors and then click on the author and you get a list of all their books and you can just click read? Can't you do that for any author list? Or is that a major re-design?
