A little book related this one.

Project Gutenberg is the first and largest single collection of free electronic books, or eBooks. Michael Hart, founder of Project Gutenberg, invented eBooks in 1971 and continues to inspire the creation of eBooks and related technologies today.

(I didn’t write that)

Mostly classics but it’s free and you dont have to leave the house.

Nice. Though I hate reading books online; trying to read Mill’s On Liberty online was so annoying I just bought the book. It’s weird that On Liberty isn’t on that site, considering its Mill’s magnum opus. His lesser known works are, though, which I haven’t previously been able to find, so I’ll be going through them.
