Project Gutenberg feels like the opposite of modern internet design philosophy. Quiet, useful, accessible, and built to last.

Project Gutenberg is awesome and amazing.

I was visting the ruins of a monestary the other day, and one of the texts listed that it had a library of 320ish books.

I chucked because I have almost 200 books in my personal Kindle library, but I was wrong. I actually have 75000+ books, thanks to Project Gutenberg.

I just haven't downloaded them all yet.
