I prefer online cataloging rather than any media indexing application that fetches data from NET. Best online cataloging is usually based on IMDB and so all you do is enter the IMDB URL and the application fetches all the data in seconds ...... one such tool I discussed before was icheckmovies
icheckmovies.com is awesome dude. Its like a social networking specially built for Movie buffs!
One can easily keep track of all the movies they have seen or want to. The most fun aspect is to compare oneself with others on the site. And also, the site brags, that it can find my "neighbors", according to movie compatibility, a feature, which I have to test after I check all the movies I have seen.
BUT, and this is the most important part, as far as we are talking about keeping track of the movies we have seen, its well and good, but this site, fails to take into account, the differentiation between "seen" and "collected" movie.
In simple words, I can't mark a movie, as "Having this movie in my collection", unless and until, I only watch movie, after it's in my collection. But I may have seen it on a theater, or TV, and may not decide to collect it. For that we must have another catalog, which can keep the list of those.
But sans the above problem, icheckmovies is awesome, and I thank-you heartily to bring this to our notice!
OK, My Movies | The Movie Manager Based on IMDb | Home is good, as far as keeping a
"simple list of the movies we have in our collection" is concerned. And I can have it backuped, after creating the list which maybe used in any other tools, which I may find later. Thanks SAM9S again, having you here is a boon to this community.
