Hello, all. It is good to find this place
Good afternoon friends,

I have been an e-book enthusiast for a couple of years. I started out reading stuff on my Dell Axim, and then found the Sony PRS 505.

Welcome to MR, longhair75

I have had the 505 for over a year and love it.

Did you know that MR has free ebooks? They have been beautifully handcrafted by some very dedicated MR members.

ePub format and Sony BBeB / lrf format

Free ebook sites

feedbooks.com
manybooks.net

Free and for purchase ebooks

smashwords.com
baen.com
Plus Baen has a great free library

You can even explore using Calibre and Kovid, the creator, frequents the forums here. We even have a dedicated Calibre forum.

Have fun exploring the forums and ask if you have any questions.

PS Check my signature and click on the links to find more information.

Thank you for the kind welcome, my new friends.

I found this site while getting ready to download Calibre and I have been moving my downloads to this platform this afternoon. I have been frequenting many of the links that friend dreams posted.

I have bought half a dozen books from the Baen site, mainly because I like to support them in their free library idea. All things being equal, I would be willing to spend a couple of bucks more there per item than buying from another site just to help keep the doors open.

Piers Anthony implied on his site that he did not thing the Baen Free Library would succeed.

If you mean http://www.hipiers.com/publishing.html
Quote:
BAEN BOOKS - www.baen.com/library/. This is a traditional publisher, offering a number of titles for free downloading, trusting that this will in the end generate more sales. I'll be interested to see if that works.
I don't think Piers Anthony is giving an opinion here one way or another. But I think he must have written this some time ago. The Baen Free Library has been going for nearly 10 years now, and Baen seems to be doing very well indeed.

Friend pdurrant,

That is exactly the portion of Mr. Anthony's site I was referring to. I took it to mean that he did not think the Baen site was viable.

Hi & welcome to MR. Hope you can resist the addiction to it. Too many of us have already fallen wayside :-)
