Long
before the name 'ebook' was known, I had envisioned an
electronic bookstore and electronic access to
information. I also had another mental imagery of computers
being like tiny
transistor radios-(Ipod).
Hence, as a technical writer, designer, computer programmer, instructor
and technological support professional, it was inevitable that I
would create informational and digital products, and
assist others who wished to create ebooks also.
You can download, read,
learn from and enjoy any of the

What is
an ebook?
An e-book is an electronic (or
digital) version of a book. The most
obvious differences in an eBook in
comparison to a physical book is that
the eBook does not have sheets of paper.
Instead, the ebook is made up of look
alike web pages also known as files and
the collection of those files into 'one main file' called the
EBOOK.
The term is used in reference to a
digital format or even a hardware device
used to read books in digital format.
Usually, when referenced as a hardware
device the more precise definition is
"e-book device" or an ebook device,
sometimes also called an ebook reader.
The product of ebooks is of greater
importance as each day e-books are an
emerging and rapidly changing
technology. Since at least 2004
experimental online magazines, pioneered
in part by Baen's Books in their release
of the first Grantville Gazette
are growing quickly.
The term e-text is also used
synonymously with the term e-book.
An eBook is also distributed as as an "Ezine"
or even called an "Internet Newspaper".

WHAT YOU NEED..
TO DOWNLOAD
AND READ
THE FREE EBOOKS BELOW?
|
| You will require
access to the Internet via high speed or regular
(256k) connections speed. However, ebooks can be
distributed on CD-Rom and even emailed as an attached
zipped file (if it is not too large of a file size).
Additionally, to access any live hypertext links that
may be included in the e-book, you will require an
Internet connection while reading it. If you have a pc that is
pre-Windows XP™, (meaning
Microsoft Windows©
9x, 2000, NT, or ME), you will require readers, viewers and unzipping software,
including installing them to your computer. If you have downloaded
zipped files or PDF files prior, you most likely will have
those programs already installed on your computer. If you have a Mac™,
you are limited to PDF formats and a few other format
types. Other than PDF type files, the 'other type
formats' will not be discussed here. Generally, the Mac
is not compatible with MS Windows©
applications and formats. Interestingly, the Microsoft
Windows©
compatible PC's will allow
you to view and read both the Execution and the PDF
format Ebooks. Some people will encourage you to compile
your Ebooks using the PDF format stating that this type
format can be read on all types of computers. However,
it a very small market that you are reaching when
designing your efforts toward the Mac.
Additionally, the Mac is
currently using newer technology and most Mac users will
be able to obtain converting software that will allow
them to view Microsoft Windows©
compatible
applications. It was inevitable that the Mac would
conform in some ways to enable the product to compete in
the computer industry. If a file downloaded is zipped, it will require unzipping.
The process of zipping files is simply the compression
to make a file smaller. Most of the time the ebook and
Software files are uploaded in a compressed (zipped)
format to make downloading faster and more reliable in
the transferring of files.
Ebooks and software files are uploaded to the Internet
for readers and buyers to download them almost
instantly. After the download any unzipping required
takes place on your computer using unzipping software.
There are a few different zip and unzip software
programs with WinZip being the most widely known and
used.

This site uses
only a few format types
.........
This site does not use or discuss the many other readers, e-book
devices and
format types that compile ebooks. However, if you would like to learn more about the many different type
eBook Formats, you can dash over to this site... to learn more..
EBOOKS DEFINITION AND VARIOUS TYPE FORMATS
THE PDF FORMAT.......
Adobe Acrobat Reader
Software must be downloaded
and installed to your computer, prior to viewing eBooks in a PDF
format. You can view PDF Ebooks using a Macintosh computer.
THE .EXE (execution) FORMAT......
This is a Microsoft Windows©
Compatible format. This type format is normally set up the same as a
web page and does not require additional or special software to view
the Ebook. However, there are other proprietary ebook compiler
(creators) publishing software that do require special type readers.
As noted above, this report discusses only the two most common. To
create aka compile an e-book in a .exe format, the documents (files)
are compressed from HTML (website) pages and collected all into one
main execution file. Simply clicking on that compressed (compiled)
file will open the ebook that has all the pages included. You then
will be able to view all the gathered pages in this one software
EBOOK product.
Imagine an Ebook like a Website you visit. There is
the first main page and with hypertext links that take you to
different pages to read.
In imagining how an e-book is created, think of it like a pie. There
are many pieces that make the pie.. The pieces of the ebook are the
written pages all compiled into one file called the E-book.
Many people believe the Ebook Creator Software will
create the Ebook for them. That is the case, but only, after
the documents (pages) have been written. An ebook cannot
become an e-book until either the information or story, to be
included, is written. Then the information (files) can be compressed
into the Ebook product by the Creating Compiler Publishing Software.
Many times people are discouraged after they have
purchased Ebook Creator Software to create their ebook, to then find
they must learn how to follow exact steps to actually create their
ebook. The steps are simple and easy to follow, yet their
anxiousness leads them into jumping in before really
understanding the very basic steps.
REQUIRED TOOLS FOR EBOOKS.....
If you do not have the software required, WINZIP or ADOBE ACROBAT
READER mentioned
above, you can download them at the following addresses
(links) below. If you have Windows XP you will have the required software
included (installed) on your computer. Therefore, you will not have
to download them.
