Google Going into the Book Publishing Business: That's Real Books Made Out of Paper

Yes, it's true. Google (GOOG), which wanted to digitize every book in existence, has decided to get into the non-digital world and start producing paperback book, made out of paper. They will be using a book machine that can create a 300 page book in five minutes or less. The machine is called the Espresso Book Machine. So I guess what goes around, comes around. Google trades on NASDAQ.

Really its Google's attempt to pacify some of those opposed to their agreement with the publisher's guild concerning the orphan works still protected by copyright, that they have been scanning. If you want really good quality POD books go to www.kirtasbooks.com. There you can buy paperbacks, hard covers and digital books.
