I mentioned the announcements about Amazon's new Kindle book reader (wifi'd) and Google's selling access to ebooks online in passing yesterday in a post on a related topic, but today if:book takes a more detailed and future-oriented look at the developments: if:book: e-book developments at amazon, google (and rambly thoughts thereon). I always enjoy the thinking that goes on at if:book, and encourage you to read this one. The author is musing about the future of publishing, but he could just as well have been speculating about the future of libraries.
