Retail Fail: The :CueCat Disaster

https://web.brid.gy/r/https://hackaday.com/2026/03/25/retail-fail-the-cuecat-disaster/

I bought a CueCat from LibraryThing when they first got them. It was so useful to me when cataloging my book and graphic novels library.

Their holiday store has them on sale for $5 for the holidays.

Now you can use a mobile phone, but back then it wasn't an option.

But you get a neat little plastic cat sculpture with a USB tail and flashing red mouth with a CueCat.

Useful for Bookwyrm.
