Delicioius Monster released version 2 of their Library software. Delicious Library 1 was a nice looking app. It was a good way to manage your stuff and show off how cool it looks on a shelf. Except you couldn’t really show anyone other than looking at your screen. Now version 2 lets you export your library to the web and view others’ libraries right in the app. Other than that, the upgrades are minor and long over due. I still find the PC knockoff MediaMan to be more functional for me, like adding items directly into distinct categories like DVDs and Blu-rays instead of adding them to Movies, creating a shelf for Blu-rays and dragging each one over. The other thing that bugs me about DL is not being able to change the case size of items. DL1 had the wrong size for PS3 games forever, and never bothered to change it with a simple update until 2 came out. And now Dreamcast games are still the wrong size. MediaMan lets you change the size of any item. However the export feature is lacking and certainly doesn’t look as nice as DL.

Check out my library.

Today I was adding my DVDs and books to Delicious Library on my Mac. When you add an item, a voice will say the name of the item you just added. When I added Harry Potter stuff, it would say the title as usual, but after a short pause a whisper voice will say ‘Voldemort’. It was really creepy and caught me by surprise. I’m a little freaked out now.

Turns out it’s an easter egg. If you add Star Wars, it does the same thing except says ‘I am your father’. Less creepy but cool.
