http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1455 Comments for "An idea pulling in film and tv data" en http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1455 <p>Fran Dowd posted a suggestion for a competition entry over on <a href="http://www.librarything.com/">LibraryThing</a>'s Google Groups <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/Librarything?lnk=li">discussion board</a>.</p> <p>It is reproduced here with her permission...</p> <blockquote><p>I would like a site that linked Library stuff with Film/TV stuff (like being able to merge LibraryThing and imdb.com <http://imdb.com> ).</p> <p>It's about taking the "work" encompassing "edition" capability to the next level, really.</p> <p>I'd like to be able to see what movie versions or TV adaptations there had been of any book / play, write / read reviews that specifically referenced the original text and the adaptations and discussed various approaches, looped me back from film to original works, novelisations, graphic novels etc. (And if it could add DVDs to my Amazon rental list at the click of a button, that would be even better.) I'd want to be able to catalogue videos / DVDs in LT and link them to the relevant written work - BladeRunner, Throne of Blood, Importance of Being Earnest, V for Vendetta. </p> <p><a href="http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1455">read more</a></p> http://www.talis.com/tdn/node/1455#comments Competition ideas Wed, 7 Jun 2006 17:20:36 +0100 Paul Miller 1455 at http://www.talis.com/tdn
