Google as Publisher : Is Google Poised for a New Push into the Information Industry? is a report for sale ( for $1,295.00!!!) by Outsell Inc. detailing how the world’s largest search company would be able to become one of the world’s top publishers “with the flip of a switch.”
For those of us without the chunk of change to purchase the article, their Press Release will just have to do.
In regards to the report, it would be a financial gain for Google to start selling the public domain books they have scanned. They would become the world’s largest print-on-demand company, and could reduce the number of out-of-print books significantly. Food for thought….
