Goodreads vs. Shelfari?

[avrelia]

I've come to the conclusion that I might want to use one of the book-themed social sites to organize my library and post and read reviews maybe.

So far I understand that I have to choose between goodreads and Shelfari. I know some of you use one or the other, or maybe both. Do you have any preferences? Which would you recommend? Pro et contra?

I know Library Thing is supposed to be good, but I don't feel like paying for the service at the moment. One problem that I have is that half of my library is in Russian, and none of these sites seem to be able to help with organizing books in Russian. Of course, there are Russian analogues, but they cannot help me with English library...

and I seem to be drowning in Web 2.0, but that is completely different problem...

I think goodreads is easier to use than Shelfari (which I'm on), but I'm computer illiterate :)
