I'm know I'm a dork.

So in having my new ipod I've have decided that I need to download more things for me to listen too. Yesterday I found this new site where you can download free audio books. I love the free book. In fact I really love free anything. Here's the concept. They are books who's copy writes have expired. So most of them are old. Which is is good for me because I'm cheap and I would have bought them anyways eventually. But to have them for free is nice. Each chapter may or may not be read by a different person as its a volunteer thing. I thought this might be very annoying but so far its hasn't really be. I mean it would be nice if the whole book was read by the same person, but we sacrifice for not having to pay for the books. Which is really a sacrifice I'm willing to make. I downloaded Mansfield Park, which I was already reading on the computer because I downloaded it for free from this site. Which is basically the book downloaded on ones computer for free. This site is better for shorter books as its hard to read 48 chapters online. But thats just me. I read Emma, and The Secret Garden among other shorter books that I've downloaded from it. I enjoyed those immensely, but again they were shorter. In reading Masfield park I was getting a bit confused. And without the book its a little more difficult to go back and re-read that which you've missed out on.
Well I just wanted to share these fun new things. I also downloaded some audio books from this site but I haven't actually listened to them yet so I can not comment. They actually have all kinds though ones you can buy and what not. I might have downloaded more there but I already read a bunch of what they had for free. That and they have lots of things that I just don't want to read or listen too. Anyways I'm having a lot of fun with it.
