Google Print Beta

Google has announced a new service called Google print that indexes books on Google search and allows you to browse throu these books! This a really helpful service! You can find out more at print.google.com. Here is how you search for books to read on Google:

1. Type in the Google search engine 'book' and then your chosen subject, title or author etc.

2. Google will list related books at the top of the results next to a picture of some books.

3. Click on the title you want!

It's that easy!

I don't get it.

I typed "book mathematics" in www.google.com and it came up a regular searched result.

I like the idea behind it, but i guess it's still in its pre-beta stage. When trying different searches I mostly get book-reviews and 'amazon'-links.

Not many books are listed, either. Google stated that they did not want to scan libraries have any affiliation with libraries at the moment.
