I recently noticed that the music stealing programs can be used to search for books in two different formats.

A search for "e-book" returns with:

Top Secret Recipes
3D Studio Max User's Guide
The Goblet of Fire
Linux C++ Programing
Animal Farm
Learn to Play Guitar

These come with about two-hundred entries that I am not going to mention, for fear of a Hausmocking. :)

A search for "audio book" gives slightly better results:

MCSE Windows 2000
The Art of War
The Raven
Learn Spanish In Your Car
Short Stories of Mark Twain

Like the e-books, the audio books come with some material of questionable value, which will not be mentioned.

Kazaa also seems to do a decent job of getting lectures and interviews. For example, a search for "Chomsky" returns with a fair amount of entries. He's not exactly my favorite speaker, but I figured I'd mention him since a lot of people here like him.

So, what do you know about the internet that may not be common knowledge?

Or, were you wondering about something in particular? For example, I know there is a website that gives sound files for word pronunciations for those of us too lazy to go through the key located at dictionary.com. However, I have absolutely no idea what the address is. Can anyone help?

It should be noted that there is a rock band named Chomsky. Just in case that wasn't widely known.

Try searching for ".txt" and ".pdf" ...there are a lot of electronic texts in both format available on the various file sharing networks. I have found WinMX to be pretty useful, as it allows for non-mp3 searches with various levels of filtering.

On google you can search to see who is linking to your site.
type link:search term

ex. link:barbelith.com

leave out the www...only put the domain name

Limewire is built for this sort of thing, as it runs over the Gnutella network. You can share *anything* over gnutella :)
