Adding books/movies from your cellphone

You may instantly add a movie or book to your GuruLib wishlist by sending a message from your cellphone with the subject as the ISBN or UPC code to barcode@gurulib.com

For e.g. If you want to add “World is Flat” from your cellphone just send a message with subject 9780374292881 to barcode@gurulib.com

You may either use the 10 digit ISBN, 13 digit ISBN, 12 digit UPC or Amazon’s ASIN code in the subject line

Before you can start adding titles this way, you need to register your cellphone number with GuruLib. This can be done at the settings page. Registration process allows GuruLib to identify the GuruLib account to add the book or movie when a message comes from your cellphone.

This feature was available for some time but I get quite a lot of email about adding this functionality to GuruLib.
