In Hong Kong, aNobii (named after the Anobium punctatum, the “paper beetle”) was created: an Internet social network dedicated to books. It is considered an example of Web 2.0, and by 2009 it had spread to 15 different languages, including Italian, classifying over 16 million books. Registered users can put their library online through ISBN codes, sharing reviews, comments, ratings, purchase and reading data, wish lists, and recommendations with other users, directly or through groups.
