One bit of seemingly at-first useful information I picked up during my recent blog-hopping was the existence of http://www.librarything.com/, a free service that would "catalog your books online." I started to play around with it, and then realized it was a kind of intellectual honey-trap, for me at least.
I would end up like a character in some weird combination of Borges's "Funes the Memorious" and "The Library of Babel": cataloging everything, trying to remember everything, while life seeped away . . .
Pol. What do you read, my lord?
Ham. Words, words, words.
