Project Gutenberg

[DustyDrB]

I just mentioned this site in another thread and realized I hadn't seen anyone mention it here. So in case you don't know, Project Gutenberg [http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page] is a site that compiles works of literature that have become public domain (The Art Of War being an example, as mentioned in the other thread). I've been using the site for years now, I'm sure I can't be the only one (because no one is ever the only one, right?). I just thought I'd do a little community service here.

I guess this is kind of advertising, but since the site is non-profit, it shouldn't really matter.

I think this is awesome but... Discussion value?

Well now, that does sound pretty handy, and free books are free books! Thanks for the link.

Awesome, that's actually kind of cool.

The same thing should be done with movies. Not sure how many are Public Domain, but you never know...

Gutenberg is good, and Google books can offer some pretty good selection as well, including old periodicals. Hard to search through GBooks though.

Thanks for the link. Everyone loves free books.
