-Tom,
If I'm looking for a particular book to download -- one that someone has said
is up that that I think I might
like, I use "find" to put in a word of the title or author, and I get to it
instantly. I do the same if I want a certain
type of book and I know, from discussions here and my volunteer work at the
library, some of the authors of
the genre, so I put in the author's name and if a book is there, I get to it
instantly. Or I'm told it isn't there. One
can also request the list by author or by type, e.g., rtf; it takes a while for
the list to re-organize, but when it
does you get a much smaller list form which to choose.
Finally, since I've decided to take txt as well as rtf files (and maybe one of
these days I'll see if I can deal with
a doc.file. I'm guessing it's a word file and I ought to be able to, but I
don't know), I just quickly scroll down
and glance at the titles. It's quick for me; I admit I don't know if it that
would be a slower process for
someone whose listening or perhaps using Braille.
It would be nice to have the list according to genre, though, but that's
probably too difficult. I think the
process now is that books, when submitted, go instantly and automaticall to the
download list with no
human intervention, so there'd be no way to do categorize them.
