Publishing Freedom

Greetings,

There's something about this site that I like,

http://redlemona.de/

Full text available before purchase, annotations from readers within the book itself etc.. Could be good...

I think it's about to go out of beta which would make it newsworthy. Of course to me, all events are newsworthy.

Interesting, but I don't really see how it offers anything you couldn't get at Feedbooks or even Wattpad. If/when they start accepting uploads from the great unwashed masses it will be just as swamped as those sites and the quality of feedback will diminish because people just won't have the time to look through it all.

I agree, the missing element is incentives for sorting.
