Hi. Didn't Jake's web page at one time have more
recent updates to new books
added to bookshare than it's web page? Seems to me
that I used to see that
some times his page would have books posted before
the main bookshar site.
Well, I still have his page bookmarked and went
there earlier just to check
it out and it seems to be the exact same as the
regular bookshare site. Has
this changed or am I just midssing something? Is
there a way to get real
time updates to the bookshare collection?
