You should consider a "recent additions" section to the front page, especially if finding any of the books themselves takes more than three clicks.

When I said they can be read on any platform, that means any type of device, as in PC, Mac, iPhone, Windows Mobile/ Android, Linux etc have at least one reader program available that can read the ePUB format. Even most dedicated ebook devices have adopted or will be adopting the ePUB format.
"EPub: Format of the future" is not the same as "EPub: Format you can read on whatever device you use for ebooks." I use a Sony Clié sometimes; it does not read ePubs. I have several friends who read on PDAs, most of which don't support ePub. They read eReader's .PDB format, PalmDOCs, and .LIT ebooks. AFAIK, there is no ePub reader for PalmOS devices. (Especially not PalmOS 4.0.)

Your enthusiasm is laudable; your willingness to ignore the interests of people who don't share your tastes, is not.
