How To: Find Google eBooks in the New Google eBookstore (+ Find Free Books to Download)
Google's much anticipated eBook Store has finally opened. As of today, the digital bookselling enterprise is awaiting your needs, with over 3 million eBooks to read directly on the web or on other platforms, like Android, iPhone, iPad, Sony and Nook devices.And the best part about the Google eBookstore— it claims to have about 1 million FREE titles to choose from (see how to find these free books below).Google eBooks, formerly called Google Editions, is sure to be an instant hit, unless you own Amazon's Kindle. A recent article in the Los Angeles Times says:Amazon Kindle users will not be able to purchase new books from Google, though the Kindle will be able to display some of Google's public domain (non-copyrighted) books.Nonetheless, Kindle users will probably still search Google eBooks for items they can't get via Amazon. Users can buy eBooks through the Google eBookstore and read them on many devices, including laptop computers, smartphones and open format e-readers. Customers can also store their purchased content on their own bookshelf accessible via their Google Account.  They will be able to start reading e-books on one device or computer and switch midway through the book to other devices without losing their spot.
