#22 Overdrive

Well I felt like the JPL site was a little too cluttered for me to actually easily enjoy downloading Overdrive. All of the links took me to different pages or different places on the page. I like to get in there and actually use the program instead of worrying about System Requirements. It makes the use of the program itself seem a little daunting before I even begin.
I did find a book that I've been interested in by Brian Herbert, the son of Frank Herbert, entitled Sandworms of Dune. I'm sure it's an interesting read but it should be even more interesting on an audio book!
I do think downloadable books are a great way to get people interested in the library without even having to search for them on the shelves. Ebooks could eventually become as popular as their predecessors as we breeze through the age of Electronic Enlightenment.
The Jpl website could use some serious revamping to make it easier to navigate and more pleasing to the eye.
