Google Print book search enhanced

Colin Dunstan · 05-29-2005, 07:32 AM

The Google Print book search can now be used to search exclusively for books in Google's ever-expanding collection of titles. Google is also integrating Google Print with Google Accounts, the company's new user account system. The advantage of signing in with a Google account is that more book pages will become visible after doing a search.

I was kind of under the impression that the books would be available for download like Project Gutenberg. That way, one could transfer them to whatever device they choose.

I'm not a fan of needing internet access to download each page and stare at a computer screen to read the book. Maybe they'll offer a text version at some point (maybe to Google Account holders.)

It's more like when you are searching for copyright-protected books and want to get a glimpse of it.
