Google Launches new Online Bookstore



c
According to the Boston Globe, there’s a new online bookstore with a familiar name, available to us, where we can now get e-books, in addition to Amazon.com.

This may also a boon to independent bookstores, which the article says will now be able to order online which they couldn’t do from Amazon.com.

Google books will be available through an app. from any electronic device that is online. The only device that is not supported is the Kindle, which is technology
totally owned by Amazon but if you possess an iPad, an iMAç, an iPhone, or for that matter, any “Smartphone,” you’re good to go, with access to over three million titles!

It is further proof of the age we live in, in which our online terminals have access to literally the whole world.c
