re: ILS component for Book Reviews...

Everyone...

I've thought about doing this many times...but I have always been worried about the opinions that people may express in their reviews/postings (bad words, innuendo etc.)...I have no idea how places like Amazon deal with this...

If I remember correctly ISP's are not responsible for what people post to their hosted blogs, groups etc.

Would it be a good idea to have staff review every posting before it goes live?

Is this a problem that needs to be considered or just legal paranoia?
