If I was a billionaire I would allocate 5%+ money for books and babies. Books, to create a library of all the worlds knowledge accessible by all. (like @ks_found and @Grokipedia ) Babies, to create a resource for mothers to be able to stay home with their babies until age 6 or 7. It would pay in dividends and the world would be a better place.

Great article. It’s ridiculous the amount of money paid to other people to essentially raise your children in a group of other kids. The mother’s and father’s are exhausted trying to make ends meet, while someone else is taking care of their children. If only we could give that money to women who want to stay home with their own children.

The KSF has recently received a large number of orders for ZWIBook flash drives. We're struggling to keep up with them and are currently out of stock. However, we will honor back-ordered items. We need to get new blank drives first, which will take a few days to arrive.

Thanks to @dara_proj for creating the zwi files of the Guttenberg Library on the @ks_found standard. @lsanger did quite a job building a reader that has all needed features to make the library searchable and notes capable. I'm so proud of everyone's work. #KnowledgeIsPower

If you want 69,020 books (so many classics) from Project Gutenberg on a flash drive, bundled with excellent, bespoke reader software, you want ZWIBook. $50 unsigned, $100 signed. The reviews are in! shop.encyclosphere.org/product/zwiboo… Quotes: Greg Newby, Director and CEO of Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, and owner of #26: "I worked with Larry to help make Project Gutenberg contents available for the ZWIBook flash drive, and I’m very pleased with the outcome. ... You get a massive personal library that you can read, annotate, and share. The collection is nicely done, with a helpful interface. The software gives you capabilities to search and use the library." Thanks to Greg & to Project Gutenberg!
