e Books

[clairemackaness]

I've been browsing through eBay tonight and come across soooo many ebooks. Do people really make money out of them?

I know most of them are just ebooks telling you to sell ebooks aka pyramid schemes, but what would you buy in ebook format if it was available?

I would probably buy one about how to become a Contempory ~Artist. Then I'd have to find another advising how to explain my works. I don't think they've been published yet. :wink:

It really depends on the book, there are loads of ebooks on the net which are actually electronic versions of "normal" books, and as such still have all the copyright etc, I come accross these very often.
Then there are ebooks that someone has put together themselves, and of course the quality of the content of these varies. Do you have a particular one in mind? if so post a lnk and I'll have a look.

I was just wondering what information people would buy electronically i.e marketing guides, web development manuals, stories etc etc

these elctronic books exist in pdf format, i have hudreds myself at the moment
Only think is getting used to reading on the monitor. Which admiteddly is not as dangerous these days. Well ur not going to print off 500 pages or more on an injet are you? lol

Plus the pdfs are searchable.

I think they are the midway to wen there will be the eletronic book. Carry one item, has hundreds of books on it. Choose what u want to read.

Sign on at a course, get one of them, with all reading matter on it.
Thats where it is going :-)

namely on stuff i get asked about a lot. Like how is it an astronomer also believes in god?
and giving up smoking

i am also writing an amusing play at the moment.
