Am converting my copy of Eric Baum's What Is Thought? to an ebook — it'll be great to have it on my Kindle; it's good practice for me at ebook production (from scans to PDFs to a Word doc to a Kindle ebook), and it's a great way of forcing myself to closely read every sentence (and word).
And as i'm doing the conversion (and reading the book), i'm thinking of the material in terms of writing C++ functions & libraries for my own word-based GOFAI software.
What FUN ! ! !
(And the debate on the legal propriety of ebook conversion is to me entirely moot, as there is no ebook for What Is Thought? otherwise available.)

Why convert it to an ebook? You do rezlize you can read pdfs on the kindle?
ReplyDeletei tried putting on the Kindle, but even in landscape mode it's not readable showing the whole width. but if i trim off the blank margins on Acrobat Pro, it might be possible.
ReplyDeletei have to trim the PDF one page at a time, since the text-area varies; but it's do-able.
