From ISFDB

Public commentary (most commonly, on social media) about ISFDB.

"The Single Best Bibliographical Resource There Is (if You Like SFF)"

Heinlein Society, Twitter, 2021-05-01

"The #ISFDB’s roots can be found in USENET...now archaic...intended to be robust enough that in the event of a global thermonuclear war, surviving users would still be able to exchange angry barbs about the latest Robert A. #Heinlein novel." #scifi #books
