RSSCool new e-books from O'Reilly Verlag
The folks at oreilly.de have launched TecFeeds, the German equivalent of the English language Short Cuts. One thing they've done that I'd like to see more of is to optimize the PDFs for easy reading on screen. Even on my MacBook's 1280x800 screen, the TecFeeds are extremely readable.
Since we're always thinking about different ways for you to read our Hacks, I can't help but wonder what other folks think about this kind of presentation. If you have a chance to check out the sample on the TecFeeds site, post a comment and let us know what you think. Do you prefer PDF books that print in portrait on letter paper, or is this kind of 2-up landscape format (which looks good on screen and prints on A4 paper) appealing?
