       TIL that Michael Hart, the founder of Project Gutenberg, typed 313 books word for word to distribute them online free of cost. Today, the project has over 70.000 free eBooks.https://www.theguardian.com/books/2011/sep/13/michael-hart-obituary#til #todayilearnedhttps://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/16iqcw1/til_that_michael_hart_the_founder_of_project/

       @todayilearned I do so love this website, it's such a great service. I've read Dracula, A voyage to Arcturus, Pride and Prejudice, h g Welles, so many great old reads and for free. It's a brilliant resource.

       @todayilearned @gutenberg_org rocks. I have a B&N Nook but mostly I use it for free eBooks.I also rooted it, but you don't have to do that to read PG books on it.  That was just for fun.
