Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created here at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list that one of our bloggers here at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers lists! If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. Have fun with it! It's a fun way to get to know your fellow bloggers.

    Ahh, amazon that's a good one! I don't really use any bookish websites, so I listed my favourite bookish things I follow on twitter- I hope you'll go and have a look!

    Woo-hoo, WorldCat! :D I share quite a few others on your list, too, but that's a major one I use at work.

    Great list. I'll definitely be checking out some of these links.
    Out of interest: How many of your BookCrossing releases have been picked up and reported back to BC?

    I need to try Library Thing. I think it's helpful to post reviews in a variety of places.

    I use Goodreads everyday. I prefer Shelfari, though. I just wish more people did too.

    I like your visual style. I just read a book about how important pictures are for the brain and memory. Fun list!
