Windows Books

Not available yet to the general public, but if you're a book publisher (self?), you can sign up for the Windows Live Books Publisher Program. And if you send in 25 books by September 15, they'll send you a snazzy courier bag. Questions?

How does it work? You enroll your books, and we take care of the rest:

We'll scan and index your titles.
Millions of Windows Live Search users will then be able to discover them.
It's easy, and it's free!
I can't help but wonder about that "millions" of users mentioned -- for a service that doesn't even yet exist. Is this akin to vaporware? Notice the program is still listed as "beta".

Hmmmm. Millions, huh? Interesting. I'll have to keep an eye on this one.

Somehow the term "Windows Books" makes me think of something like a cross between a "window seat" and a "coffee table book", like it's a book to place in a window seat ... anyone else get this connotation?
