...Goodreads and BookLikes is that when Goodreads makes an announcement it's late on a Friday night when everyone is going home, and in a group less than 1% of their members read. When BookLikes makes an announcement it's on a blog all their members follow by default (although you can opt out) and on a Thursday and they have one full working day ahead of them for facing the consequences aka reading comments praising and thanking them.
I could have titled this The difference between idiocy and brilliance and it'd have meant the exact same thing.

Christina's notes: You can also call it the difference between caring and very blatantly not giving a shit.
