Babak Fakhamzadeh (mastababa) | 1 comments Hi all,

What should you read when you visit a particular place?

For me, I (used to) do the legwork when planning a trip. But, tapping the wisdom of frequent travellers and regular readers makes sense. Groups like 'Around the World in 80 Books' are great for this.

Being a regular (though not regular enough) reader, frequent traveler, and software developer, I wanted to throw something together where everyone can match books with places and then can vote on the books that best match particular places, in a way creating collaborative lists matching places and books.

So, if you have a few minutes to spare, take a look at:

https://visitthisreadthat.com

Anyone can contribute, but you need to register and log in to vote on individual books.

I'd love to see your contributions. I'm also keen to hear what functionality you think might be missing. Do let me know if you find a bug. And, tell others if you like what you see :)

Thanks in advance, happy travels, happy reading.

And, a thank you: Much of the current content was added by fellow group member Jacob Overmark, who's been instrumental in identifying bugs and including meaningful content.
