Previously thought to be called “Google Editions”, the “Google eBookstore” is live and offering hundreds of thousands of titles for purchase. As opposed to other e-book providers, Google’s e-books are entirely cloud-based.<\/p>\n

“Google eBooks stores your library in the digital cloud,” writes the company, “so you can read all of your favorite books using just about any device with an Internet connection.”<\/p>\n

For those of you worried about reading your books on the go or up in the air, where there might be no Internet connection, Google says that “once you open your book using our mobile reader apps, your book will sync to your device and you can continue reading it online or offline.”<\/p>\n
