Google Presents Google Editions at Digital Book World
At the Digital Book World Conference this morning, Google’s Amanda Edwards gave a concise talk on what we can expect from Google Editions. It sounds pretty cool and convenient, mostly because Google’s major objective is to make books available anywhere on any device. Hooray for openness.
Edwards quoted Google’s maxim for the project: “We’d like to make it so that books can be bought anywhere and read anywhere.” That means, once purchased–through Google itself, retail partners, or through partnerships with device manufacturers–Google Editions eBooks will be available on any Internet enabled device via the user’s online bookshelf, which will be tied to that user’s Google account.
