Almost feature complete - closed beta delayed until mid February

I hoped to get more programming done over X-mas then I actually did and now the lauch of the closed beta got delayed. We notified everybody who signed up but the delay gives you the opportunity to still get in. Look at the previous post to learn how to sign up for libridi's closed beta --

With libridi about 70% feature complete I am starting to showcase some of the features. We are especially proud of the clear and easy to understand design. Here is the search for a book screen:


The search engine uses Amazon's Web Services which means almost any book known to man can be found. The view gives you an image of the title, a short description, and the star rankings.

If you found the book you are looking for just hit "Save" and the system will either reserve it from your library or put it in some "saved" state. For books in the saved state the system will check every day if it got bought by the library and if so reserve it.

Next time we will show you the queue screen --
