The iPhone reading space just got a little bigger with the addition of textReader, a simple and straightforward way to read plain text and Palm doc formatted ebooks. One of the nicest features is the ability to download a file via URL, so I’ve added a link for each book to mnybks.net — if you’re browsing the site with an iPhone you’ll be shown a URL like http://mnybks.net/pdb/4701 which you can use in textReader to pull that book directly to your phone!
The numeric code at the end of the URL is the same as the “mnybks.net ID” shown on each title’s page on manybooks.net.

It’s very basic right now: create a user account and add titles to “bookshelves”; keep track of books you’ve read or intend to read.
Bookshelves can also be used to transfer books to an iPhone using “Installer.app” (see the iPhone help section for details).
Future features may include public access to your shelves, bulk downloading, and more. If you’ve got suggestions, please share them with me!

At the suggestion of Marc Carson I added link to each reviewers name which will show all of their reviews (like this) — a nice way to find other good titles at manybooks.net.
Thanks Marc!

Thanks to Leah Zeldes for the suggestion — the Recent Additions page can now display new titles for a single Category (like “Science Fiction” for example). Simple? Pretty much. Useful? Seems like it could be — tell me what you think!
