Nice to see Shelfie get a new home at Kobo. Also looking forward to the integration of their services with Kobo |

If they start to add the ability to get a discounted price on e-version of pb books that I have I'll be happy about this acquisition. The "better" recs part doesn't excite me at all.

I think they mentioned bringing the other features of Shelfie in to the mix. Hopefully this all happens a bit faster than their overdrive support, and hopefully it'll be for all devices

Hmm as long as they don’t deliver stable firmwares and messy devices, they should probably concentrate on that...
