In the issue of PC Magazine, their “Top 100” web sites out of millions lists Project Gutenberg for being one of the best of the best Internet resources.
[Update 2017: the linked webpage is no longer available so I’ve removed the link.]
Project Gutenberg is among the very oldest electronic information providers in the world if not the oldest.
Tens of thousands of eBooks are available at PG sites www.gutenberg.org and www.gutenberg.cc as well as thousands more at the other PG sites in:
Scrollbox.org is an online library and e-reader. It’s designed to be a simple way of reading eBooks on computers and phones with internet access.
It uses no images or video so pages load quickly, and allows users to upload books for their own use. Scrollbox remembers what you were reading last time you visited and starts you right where you left off.
The site also has a feature specifically for the iPhone that allows people to save books so that a network connection is not needed. This is great for subways, airplanes, etc. and reduces login time and expense.
@folio is a reading device conceived in October 1996 by Pierre Schweitzer, an architect-designer living in Strasbourg, France. It is meant to download and read any text and/or illustrations from the web or hard disk, in any format, with no proprietary format and no DRM.
The technology of @folio is novel and simple, and very different from other reading devices, past or present. It is inspired from fax and tab file folders. The flash memory is “printed” like Gutenberg printed his books. The facsimile mode is readable as is for any content, from sheet music to mathematical or chemical formulas, with no conversion necessary, whether it is handwritten text, calligraphy, free hand drawing or non-alphabetical writing. All this is difficult if not impossible on a computer or any existing reading device.
Gutenberg volunteers & other interested folks: Here’s something new to try. It’s a search engine that includes fielded searches, plus text, for the PG content. It enables searching the files (as Google does), and parses the catalog for database-style searches (like our Yahoo search). It’s fresh.
Please email Anna Tothfalusi (atothfalusi@tesuji.eu) with any feedback or questions.
The interface is sparse, but the “help” link shows syntax examples…“Advanced search” offers some drop-downs. Ideas for the interface, search functionality, etc. would be welcome.

NOTES:
To arrive at the Newsletter statistics a manual count was done on all the
'posted' listings found in the Newsletter Archives. For PG-EU the website
listing was used. All these statistics were then entered into a spreadsheet.
DP-EU is currently concentrating on U.S. copyright clearable eBooks and
therefore many of these are posted to both the PG and PG-EU sites, non U.S.
clearable books posted to PG-EU only. Please note that only the non-clearable
('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and not the overall PG-EU total.

NEW YORK (Reuters) reported that publisher HarperCollins said on Wednesday, it will be making 14 new book titles available for Apple’s web-browsing iPhone in an effort to extend publishing into digital formats.
Books being made available include; “The Burnt House” by Faye Kellerman, “Now and Forever” by Ray Bradbury and “Obama” by David Mendell.
It has been said before that we need an iTunes equivelent for books. Could this HarperCollins/iPhone venture be the boost eBooks need? I myself am not a huge fan of Apple but if this were to help push eBooks to the forefront of consumers minds, then I’m all for it.
Thousands of literary texts are now available online, all submitted by volunteers. Is this the most enlightened initiative since English studies was invented? John Sutherland wrote an interesting article for the Gardian Unlimited back in July.
In this article he make mention of Project Gutenberg along with several other online projects.
Here’s a short extract to wet your tastbuds;
This summer, I suspect, a student will graduate from a good university with an excellent degree in English. No rarity there. The degrees get better every year. Too good, some cynics say.
Einstein said that the most important decision you ever make is whether you live in a friendly universe or a hostile universe– in a positive universe or a negative universe.
This relates very strongly to what is perhaps the greatest idea I came up with in all my college years, which was that you make more difference in the world taking something good and making a better thing out of it than by undoing something bad. . . .
When we describe our heroes and superheroes, we often described them only in terms of the bad things they have undone.
However, this is not ALWAYS the case, as TIME magazine managed, in an era of fairly unprecedented biased journalism, to elect a “Person of the Millennium” who had actually taken a good thing, A VERY GOOD THING. . .books. . .and MAKE THEM HUGELY BETTER.
Herr Gutenberg did not have to think he was undoing some evils, all he had to do was think of making more books, better books– faster books, etc. . .as more books were published in just that first fifty years of his invention’s use than in all of history for five thousand years.
The pundits all ask, “Why aren’t eBooks a success?”
But their queries show a ridiculous bias when their form and content always come down to the dollar.
The almighty dollar.
A Reply To All Those Pundits by Michael S. Hart.
What If A New Product Just Doesn’t Cost Anything?
If the pundits had asked the same way about success for The Gutenberg Press, they should have spoken in just about the same manner, since at Gutenberg book pricing the new books cost only a small fraction of one percent of the price of pre–Gutenberg books.
Thus, the total cash paid out for these new fangled books was nothing compared to what price would have been paid under the old manuscripting systems.

listing was used. All these statistics were then entered into a spreadsheet.
DP-EU is currently concentrating on U.S. copyright clearable eBooks and
therefore many of these are posted to both the PG and PG-EU sites, non U.S.
clearable books posted to PG-EU only. Please note that only the non-clearable
('Unique') eBooks are counted toward the Totals and not the overall PG-EU total.
