Too busy to Read those classics?

Are you just too busy to read books? Well here comes DailyLit to the rescue. Basically what DailyLit is a service that emails you bite sized chunks of public domain novels on a daily basis:

Because if you are like us, you spend hours each day reading email but don't find the time to read books. DailyLit brings books right into your inbox in convenient small messages that take less than 5 minutes to read. This works incredibly well not just on your computer but also on a Treo, Blackberry, Sidekick or whatever the PDA of your choice. In the words of Dr. Seuss: Try it, you might like it! (Oops -- it would appear that the actual quote from Green Eggs and Ham is "You do not like them. So you say. Try them! Try them! And you may.")


I'm starting off with Thus Spake Zarathustra just cause I've always wanted to read it. I think next will be the Divine Comedy if I can get through this one.

I figure that enough of my readers are booky nerds that will dig into this.

I really liked Zarathustra...
this is a neat concept... something like what we apply to non-readers in my classroom.

yeah thats pretty cool. I just got my first chunk in the email today.. the coolest thing is that its free and there is very little advertising at the bottom.

Thanks for the linky bud
