I buy my airline tickets online directly from the airline, the tea I like directly from Bigelow, goofy golf shorts for my husband from Loudmouth, etc., so it was a natural thing for me to go looking for publisher sites selling ebooks directly when I first got into ebooks. Some of them do have websites, but navigating them is a nightmare and they are definitely not geared to ebooks. On the two I tried I couldn't even do a search just for ebooks. I can't understand why the big publishers don't have a significant presence on the net for selling ebooks, it seems like a missed opportunity to me. Actually I take that back, their non-existent presence has to be intentional, which highlights their indifference or possibly even hostility towards ebooks.
