Deleting entries and following other readers

Is there a way we can delete an erroneous entry (when you forget you're reading two books, and don't use an ISBN for a bookmark, for example)? And also, could we 'follow' other readers who we know or are interested in, like a Flickr contact or Twitter follow? Sorry if others got there before me. Thanks - it's fun.

I’m confident

The problem here is authentication. Bkkeepr doesn't do logins, as this would massively complicate the site (I'm not *really* a coder, I just hack around), so there's no way of bkkeepr knowing (atm) who you are, and what records to delete.

At some point in the future, it may be possible to send a DM from Twitter saying delete the last message, and I'm going to start thinking about how to implement this. For the moment, I'm afraid it's just a bit fast and loose. I myself have done the ISBN thing several times, and although I hoped it would be easier, I now include the ISBN every time to be sure.

With regards to following other people, you won't be able to do this on bkkeepr exactly, but I'm working on doing something with your Twitter followers... stay tuned (but don't hold your breath ;-).

I’m working on it (slowly...)

this is one of the best points
