Stanza

Finally an iphone app that is created just for those that simply cannot imagine their lives without a good book. Why bother traveling with couple of book when you can carry thousands of them in your pocket. Sounds amazing right? – Well, honestly it is. Stanza has in its library all the classical works, ranging from Shakespeare, to Shelley, to Byron, and even the modern day bestseller, like Dan Brown, etc. You can download your books from pages like: Fictionwise, Feedbooks, Book Glutton, The Guttenberg Project and many more. The difference between these sites is that in some of them you’ll have to pay to download your favorite book. The downloading takes just a couple of seconds if you are downloading through Wi-Fi. Another cool feature is that if you hold your finger over the cover art, the picture will be saved in your photo album. There are also RSS feed from most of the newspapers or magazines, like The Economist, or New York Times, available through this app. The flipping of the pages can be very realistic if you choose to flip by swiping your finger across the screen, but the pages can be flipped even with a simple tap on the end of the screen. And probably one of the best features of this iphone app is that, Stanza, is smart enough to actually remember where you were in your book.
