Google Books is an interesting place to spend a summer afternoon. Though those days may be dwindling from our fingers like grains of sand, we can still indulge in that best of summer pastimes: reading. There are over one million books there now. A few interesting sections of this library could consume all the days of the year, were one to endeavor to read them all.
- Linux is a popular topic.
- Mathematics features a number of children's books, in addition to the deeply cerebral.
- There's a healthy helping of Java, too. JavaScript creeps into that search, however, which is good because there seems to be only one Javascript book, according to Google.
- There's some good science fiction in there too.
It should be noted that not all of these books are actually available for free. Google's search tool offers up a great deal of fun to be had amidst the virtual bookshelves of a library that would best be represented in a Matrix-style white void.
