DailyLit - we read books by email or RSS

The DailyLit project presents a new way of reading books to users: via RSS or e-mail. As soon as a user subscribes to reading a book, DailyLit begins to send him pieces of this book daily until the book ends. The user can control the speed of the provision of parts of the book, and can even read the book forward to bypass the settings if he has free time.

How long will a user read a book provided this way? This question is answered in the questions and answers section of the project website:

It depends on three factors:

1. How many parts of the book is divided (you will see this information when looking for a book)
2. Of your settings for the speed of giving you parts
3. How often will you read more than one part at a time, using the opportunity to "send me the next part immediately"

Here is an example: At the moment I am reading Dracula, which contains 187 parts, and I receive parts daily on weekdays, i.e. 5 times per week. Therefore, in general, it will take me 187/5 = 37 weeks. But I also often read when I am on the road or on hold, so an average of about 10 parts a week come out. This means that I will finish reading the book in 19 weeks or 5 months. If it seems to you that it is very long - try a different method.

The main thing that I liked in DailyLit is that they have the ability to deliver books via RSS, which gives me the opportunity to read the book in pieces, daily, without looking up from reading the RSS feed, which will allow me to read more books. Delivery by e-mail is also a great option, especially for those who still avoid such a means of providing information (it’s hard to believe, but there really are such people) or for those people who have RSS in their offices.

At the moment, DailyLit provides mostly old books, and since it’s part of a state organization, they don’t have to worry about rights issues. In the future, they plan to sign several contracts in order to be able to provide newer books, because this way of reading books can help a large number of busy people read more books.
