What about an online library? I mean, a real library with virtual books... Scribd


Imagine youtube, but for books... Scribd works just like that, users upload books, which stay available for other users to read. Just like that. Thing is, only original writings should be submited, truth is (and this is a small secret) pretty much everything is available for online reading there, from a recipe book to the latest "something for dummies", or the hottest novel of the moment. Registered users can download the books in pdf or plain text, and documents can be uploaded using almost any printable format like Word docs, PDF files or powerpoints. My guess is that if and when this website becomes publicly noticed, there will be some kind of censorship, like it happened with youtube, but for now is free and up for everyone. Have fun putting your readings up to date...

  2. Wow. Is that new? This will be my first time to hear online library. I really appreciate you for sharing this to us. This will eliminate carrying much books when you borrow in real library building. While here, as what you have said, you can actually download in PDF format or Word Docs. That is really cool.

  9. Funny you should mention this as I really like reading good old classics like the Art of War and stuff like that so this is an excellent idea if we cant to use some reference books but don't have room in our houses to store so many. I do love owning a few special books but there are too many good ones out there to own.

  10. You're correct yanji, I should have mentioned the classics, and bedla, classic book papers are better and I think few people won't think that way, but sometimes is a matter of personal finances. Thanks for all the comments guys (and girls) ;-)
