Here's an app for my fellow book lovers out there. If you're like me and you have a lot of books (I have over 3000) and need help cataloging them, this is a handy app. You can look up books by ISBN # or enter them manually, sort by author or title, and can export to MS Excel format. When it finds a book it usually already has the publishing company, the page count, sometimes even a short description.
One thing to note: it's supposed to be able to scan bar codes and pull up the ISBN, but for some reason that doesn't work for me. It pulls up the bar code # or whatever which is different from the actual ISBN, so returns an "unable to find ISBN" (whatever it says) message.
I've tested it on a few dozen books and exporting to an Excel spreadsheet, and so far everything looks great. Can't wait to get all of mine sorted again (lost track a while back) because this way when I go book hunting and buy a 100 at a time I can make sure right on my phone I don't already have some obscure sci fi novel.
