Second to last exercise!!!I went through and had look at netlibrary via the tutorial and it was really interesting. I then had a look on ebooks.com site where I discovered alot of my favourite books can be purchased from.... I really liked this site as it has some really new books listed on there to and its easy to navigate through it. You can spend all day browsing through this site!!!
I visited the Project Gutenburg site - WOW it's huge! They have lists of top 100 e-books as of yesterday and 7 days ago as well top authors for the same time frame. The most interesting thing on their site is part where they got list of books in other languages. Under the category of Language with up to 50 books, Maori is listed. When I clicked on it - it only comes up with one book "Hinemoa". What with the 50 books and only 1 is listed???
There are no Pacific Island languages - boo hoo! But Chinese is there under the category Language with more than 50 books. There are 320 titles!
I like there bookshelf searching tool. One can easily see at a glance what's available - very simple and easy. However Project Gutenburg sites doesn't have as many newer books as the ebooks.com site. (or am i not searching it properly??). hmmm.
