Electronic Books Where to Find Them

As the eletronic readers gain popularity, finding bargin priced e-books or better yet free e-books to download on your reader is a great find. A few that I have found include: Free-ebooks.net, Google Books, Kobo.com, Manybooks.net and specifically for Ohio, the Ohio e-Book Project. All require some type of registration while others require special downloads. But all sites have a fair amount of free titles.

Sitting in silence at your computer? Want to listen to music that you select rather than what someone else selects for you? Create your own playlist using Playlist.com. Begin by creating your Playlist account then search, save and listen to the music you enjoy most. (Internet Required)
