MacRumors’ Arnold Kim published a preview of Delicious Monster’s upcoming Delicious Library 3, a major update to 2008’s Delicious Library 2. In version 3.0, the app will evolve from being a catalogue of the media you own to become a recommendation tool based on the products you own:

We’re centered on the idea of your books (movies, cds, whatever) being an aspect of your unique personality, and our app does neat things with your personal data—like give you cool graphic summaries, or really good composite recommendations.

I have been struggling in the past months to find a system to help me keep track of things I want  to buy. Initially, I set up a Pinterest board, but I ended up not liking the service’s focus on social and sharing; then, I started appending URLs to a text file in Dropbox, but I missed the richness of Pinterest’s image thumbnails. Right now, I’m  using Evernote with a mix of rich text and inline photos/screenshots, but the solution isn’t ideal (although I believe it’s better than what I was doing before).

I’m intrigued by Delicious Library’s new focus on recommendations. I look forward to trying the app’s engine and iOS version (with sync – I assume).
