Can someone explain the Buddy List to me? When I check it out it just tells me I don't have any. :-( I know that. How do I get them. What do I do with them once I have them?  Sarah :-)

I use my buddy list to keep up with people who offer deals regularly and people whose reading tastes are similar to mine.  You can add people by clicking on their profile or bookshelf and then clicking the button that says ' + Buddy '. 

Sarah - I just sent you a Buddy invitation.  You can accept it or not as you wish.  i like having Buddies because I can check their WL's and bookshelves easier than looking for them again.  We don't seem to have too much in common right now...but I have a GD that I want to get books for.  The last book I got for her from PBS arrived with tears and teeth marks.  It was the Touch'n Feel book for little ones and I was appalled at the condition.  Needless to say I didn't give it to her.  But I also realize that baby books do tend to be well "used".  I just didn't like the idea of teeth marks and the good parts were torn up.  At any rate - you can have a Buddy now if you want!
