It's not for me.
An app is good interface wise, but if I was going to stick to a single OS it would be iPhone. But I do want it to be server based. I need the access to their database of books to keep a reasonable list, and a big part of the reason I keep it organized is for the ability to share lists in relevant conversations. I just don't have any interest in feeds of friends lists or any of that.
Goodreads version actually kind of sucks. A shared list doesn't keep my ordering and doesn't surface my reviews as part of the list. I'd also prefer to be able to put a series or author into a list, with a "review" of them as a whole over an individual book. But none of the others have an acceptable bulk edit tool that lets me go through 50 books at a time checking boxes to make bulk edits. They want me to manually search each book to add to a list one at a time, when even Amazon's version is an incredibly tedious prospect.
