[school-discuss] Ebooks for K-12 and ebooks under Linux

[Bill Kendrick <nbs@xxxxxxxxx>]

A few random links I saw on another list I'm part of:

  http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/14/democratic-groups-proposal-give-each-student-a-kindle/

and:

  http://www.teleread.org/2009/07/15/did-dem-think-tanker-rip-off-the-teleread-idea-probably-not-deliberately-but-a-little-credit-wouldnt-hurt/


For those curious about ebook reading/creation under a Linux desktop/laptop
(note that Kindle, as well as I think a few other stand-alone ebook devices,
are actually Linux-based), see:

...and:

... perhaps among others I don't yet know about. ;)


Disclosure: I work for a company that helps people self-publish and sell
(or give away) ebooks.
