Since we launched (24 hours ago now!) we've had more people uploading bookcases than we hoped for – we're happy that people are enjoying it. We've got plenty more exciting stuff up our sleeves and now the site is live we're going to continue to work on our automatic bookcase and might even be looking for some help from the community on that one – watch this space. In terms of making BookRabbit available on different platforms, we made a conscious decision to go with the flow on this one. We hope and expect the community to decide where the site will go and where people want to use it, and are keen to make decisions about BookRabbit’s growth and development with exactly that in mind – not merely because a certain route is cheaper or new technology becomes available Will Jones - IT Director BookRabbit Will@BookRabbit.com I think you’re right about making the bookcase experience as fun and friendly as possible.
