Delicious Library
REVIEWED BY JEFFREY GAIER -- 04/2006
Over the years I have purchased quite a few books, movies, games
and other items of entertainment value. There are times I begin to
second guess myself rummaging through my shelves looking for a book.
It is one of those situation do I have the book? Where is it? Did one
of family members borrow it? Well with Delicious Library some of those
problems can now be solved.
Delicious Library is a database software that allows you to catalog,
browse and share all your books, movies, music and video games. It is
literally a library all to itself. Using a firewire capable video
camera such as isightš, you can point the camera at the item's barcode,
the software will then seek out the information on that product at
Amazon.com. If the book, movie, game, or music is there, the software
will copy an image of the cover, and the information it finds on the
product at Amazon.com to enter into your database. If you don't have
an isight camera that isn't a problem. You can input your collection
by scanning device, voice or even by hand with your keyboard.
Once you have your item in the library, you import friends, family
members or other people into your library from your address book or
you can input them by hand. You can keep track of which friends borrow
which book from your library.
The software has a few features that allow you to seek out items on
Amazon.com for sale, (both used and new), as well as selling items
from your collection on Amazon.com. Personally, these features did not
impress me. Partially because the folks then at Delicious-Monster are
putting themselves in the position of getting some credit from your
sales or purchases through the software.
If you would like to find some software to organize your collection,
Delicious Library is most certainly something you should consider.
Delicious Library cost is about $40.
