The World’s Largest Book Club

Isaac Fitzgerald bio ↓  ·  March 25th, 2010  ·  filed under books, Media

“What if everyone on Twitter read the same book at the same time and we formed one massive, international book club?”

Jeff Howe (@CrowdSourcing) lays out his “scheme” to create the world’s largest book club using Twitter.

“One Book, One Twitter” (or #1b1t) is already rolling, with users voting on which books they would like to see considered for the club. What happens after a book is selected? “We start reading, and tweeting, and reading, and tweeting,” says Howe.
