Searchable books online

Great Idea!!

Amazon Plan Would Allow Searching Texts of Many Books
By DAVID D. KIRKPATRICK

xecutives at Amazon.com are negotiating with several of the largest book publishers about an ambitious and expensive plan to assemble a searchable online archive with the texts of tens of thousands of books of nonfiction, according to several publishing executives involved.

Amazon plans to limit how much of any given book a user can read, and it is telling publishers that the plan will help sell more books while better serving its own online customers.

2-thumbs up to this idea.......

Sounds like a marketing tool for them, rather than a research tool for us :konfused:
..still, it’s better than nothing
