Random (House) Book News

This article snuck its way into my inbox this morning (courtesy of slashdot). Apparently our friends at Random House/Harper Collins have decided that online access to their books (approx. 5,000 of their current titles) will boost sales and voila! We have searchable and browsable (probably pdf) e-texts. They'll be giving full access through Amazon and Google, in addition to allowing segments to be embedded on pages of social networking sites. Considerig our recent discussion regarding e-books, etc., I thought this would be of interest.

And for a little bit of random fun...take this test, drink some coffee, then take it again.
