Daily Lit

Here's a nifty site I've just come across, via boingboing. Give them ytour e-mail address, and they'll regularly email you consecutive sections of a book on a schedule you choose. For instance, I've opted to receive a chunk of Turn of the Screw, by Henry James, each weekday morning. The selections are mostly the what you'd expect... Shakespeare, HG Wells, Dostoyevsky, Dickens. But there are also a few quirky ones, like Edwin Abbott's Flatland. And come current authors like boingboing's C.D. are making their books available through the service as well. A pretty neat idea, I'd say.
