California's free textbooks

Couldn't get a picture over at NASA in the end and did think about going back today to try again .. but think I'll leave it.

Regardless of technical difficulties the net's amazing though I was listening to a short talk this morning where someone was saying that they think that it won't be all that long before something else more solid takes it's place which doesn't have so many problems and that we'll wonder how we ever managed to use something like it. Wonder how long it'll take.

I've downloaded California's free school text books today to have a look through, Had looked at the site some time ago but hadn't looked at the books. They, like that other site, have released them under a creative commons licence.

Have glanced through one of them and it seemed fine.
