Thing 22-Overdrive and Net Library

I really would have liked for them to put the fact that these resources are not available to the hip and happening Mac/Apple crowd.

The tutorials were really easy to understand and the video was clear. But the disappointment at the end when one is shown the ipod with the big x through is is crushing.

Are overdrive and netlibrary pawns of Mr. Gates? Conspiracy theory? Maybe...

Now, Project Gutenberg is very interesting. There are almost no books that I want to read, but my sister who is a medievalist might find something to her liking. I tried the Kama Sutra, but there were no pictures.
