I had considered doing that ... Once upon a time I kept a hand-written cardfile with the names of all of my books, and if a short story collection, I had the titles of the stories and authors on the back. It was very cool, but I reached a point where I no longer kept up with it, and I suspect I've passed the point of no return as far as the sheer numbers of books that I have.

I also used to maintain a list of books I wanted to buy. This was kept in a steno pad. Now I have multiple amazon.com wishlists, and an impulse-buy control problem. If a week goes buy without at least two packages from amazon.com, my mailman asks me if I'm feeling okay.
