Is this a widget you may be looking at creating in the future.

It's supposed to be showing my wishlist books, but instead it's showing me random covers of books I've mooched or given away. I wonder if John is planning to address this issue?

I would also like to be able to add this widget to my LiveJournal. I did a little searching and noticed that LibraryThing has found a way to make such a thing possible with php: http://www.librarything.com/blog/2006/12/graphical-widgets-for-lj-and-etc-first.php I played around with the BookMooch php URL, but as I'm not much of a programming maven I haven't been able to combine the two approaches. Any plans to create a widget that will be compatible with LiveJournal and other LJ clones like GreatestJournal, etc.? Thanks! This is great!

I guess it just took a moment to get caught up. However, it looks like it is showing wishlist books that I've successfully mooched? Never mind–it appears to be showing my wishlist now.

However, it looks like it is showing wishlist books that I’ve successfully mooched?

BUT--I want to show my wishlist books, and it's pulling from the "Books I've Mooched" list :( Possible bug?

The bookmooch server simply can't handle the traffic. At first I thought the slowness was due to loading images from Amazon, so I switched to titles only. But my blog was still taking a minute and more to load. Removed this widget and everything flies. It's a great idea, but until you get a few more hamsters in the wheel, I've gotta pass.
