52 Books in 52 Weeks (2011) discussion

I have a suggestion.
Why not everybody create a thread on this discussion board entitled with their names. Every time you read a book, just update your list.
This way the list will be always fresh, and easier to go thru, rather than visiting your profiles one by one..

How about that?

Lastoadri,
I'm not sure if I understood you properly, but that's a great suggestion if we had LESS members. We have 200+ members! That means 200+ threads.
Did you visit my "Week: 1" thread? Organizing by time seems less messy to me. Where everyone would post a reply to "Week: 1" with what they have read THAT week. And "Week: 2", and so on.

I see your point, valid of course.. :)
My understanding, however, that only newly updated threads will show up..thats how thread for people who don't read much, wouldn't bother the rest very often..

Also another suggestion.. you can divide the discussion board by Letters..
Lets say People's names that stats by A till E are grouped together.. etc

Here is an example we can replicate
http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/2...

That's amazingly organized. Brilliant idea.

But still, we encounter the problem of 'clicking too much' which could be tiring. Let's see how people feel about having to visit each member thread, instead of visiting one thread every week.

I'd like to hear your opinions, people.

Thanks!

i like both ideas, but i prefer sticking with one thread per week...

that way its easier to reach all reviews in one place, and catch up would be easy for anyone who doesn't follow the discussions regularly..

Agree :)

Both are great suggestions. But, I also prefer the Weekly Threads. The challenge is to read 52 books (whether some people keep up or not), so we should end up with 52 threads in the end of 2011, one for each week of the year. It makes more sense to me:)
