#22 (Week 9) eBooks and Audio eBooks

I have been a fan of Audio books for years. Listening to books has made many long trips enjoyable and one of my favorites was an unabridged reading of Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett. We now have Digital Audio Downloads at our local library and after viewing the World Books efair site and the Gutenberg Project it has sparked an interest in this format for listening to audio books.
After reading the statistic that over one million free electronic books are on the Internet it is time to catch up on some of those classics that I have always wanted to read.
Once again the positive impact of the Internet on modern day life can be seen in this technology. It’s wonderful to have these listening options and to see the positive offering of free eBooks balancing the negative aspects of the online world.
