Goodreads
http://www.goodreads.com/
"Goodreads is a free website for book lovers. Imagine it as a large library that you can wander through and see everyone's bookshelves, their reviews, and their ratings. You can also post your own reviews and catalog what you have read, are currently reading, and plan to read in the future. Don’t stop there – join a discussion group, start a book club, contact an author, and even post your own writing."

Catalog and organize your books and media, share reviews and comments about what you're reading, listening to or playing, and connect with others who share your taste.
Image2DocInfo
http://image2docinfo.sourceforge.net/
"Image2DocInfo has been made to quickly and simply tag digital pictures. A GUI allows you to set different attributes for an image, and then stores them in XML files. Those XML files follow the Dublin Core naming scheme and are stored in the same directories than the pictures themselves."

http://www.librarything.com/
"Enter what you're reading or your whole library—it's an easy, library-quality catalog. LibraryThing also connects you with people who read the same things."
