Good platform for a bookclub?

So here’s another post where I have no answers.

Ruth says she she wants to “start sharing our reading on professional development somewhere central. @SallyTurbitt and I are going to read the same books and try and share out thoughts.”

She asks: “So what collaborative platforms are you all into? What do you recommend for such a format?”

Sorry Ruth, I have no idea what would be good for an online professional reading group. It would be great to have one, though.

Since Zite closed down, I just haven’t had a good reading aggregator app. I’ve tried but dislike Flipboard. Apple News, nah. I think I need to do some work reviewing my RSS feeds and Twitter lists – my links here are all old and not all of interest to me anymore.

What should I use? What do you use for your current affairs and professional reading?

I use and quite like Feedly for professional reading. It integrates well with Twitter and Pocket.

I do quite miss the pseudo-serendipity that Zite offered. Nothing else serves up the same range of content.

Thanks @flexnib and Kate for the feedback. I shall investigate Feedly. Or maybe something more open that we need to learn anyway Refworks or Evernote?
