Google is getting sued by some authors for offering up search of printed works at Google Print, another of their beta projects. I am amazed they are suing on this, this could be the best thing every for authors of books once they are no longer new. I did a search for some obscure people from the British Empire and found a number of books I had never heard of but that were in print and available. I suspect these authors are joining the recording industry in attempting to shoot themselves in their own feet.
