I started the trial when it first came out, but the points you make, Ian, put
me off even doing that. I thought I was ok with technology, but this made me
feel like a green behind the ears numpty. Shame, really, as it is a good idea
in theory, it’s just that the execution is lacking somewhat. Perhaps they will
make improvements over time.
Cheers

Subject: [access-uk] OVERDRIVE FIRST IMPRESSIONS
At last I’ve had the time and opportunity to look at the Overdrive site
although I have not yet borrowed any books. My impression is that it is over
fussy, cluttered and generally rather counter-intuitive. If you compare
searching for and borrowing a book with, for instance, buying a book from the
Amazon Kindle site, the latter is much more straightforward and easy to do.
