#22 Ebooks

Project Gutenburg was highly different to what I had imagined it. I suppose the trend now is changing to ebooks and I think this service that they offer is good for those kind of people.
I had a quick search for authors I liked but found a myriad of others who had written much more interesting things. Downloading is probably simple now as most people have broadband and others rely on stuff like RSS feeds and such.
I must say I was a bit overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things that were available there.
They even advertise for proofreaders!! It's so amazing what is there!
I must add though that I'm from a generation where we enjoyed turning the pages of a real book and thrilled at the ability to keep and hold a world of imagination in my hand!!
