Features include: font selection, font size, line spacing and day/night reading mode. As we previously reported, Google lets people buy its eBooks from other booksellers, for now, only a few of them are in the partners program: Powell’s, Alibris and participating members of the American Booksellers Association. In the official information that we received from Google, there was still no word on the revenue share the publishers or the independent bookstores will get.

Editor’s note: at the time of publishing, we did not have the official links to the Google eBookstore and the information page.
