It is none other than yours,mine and everyone’s favorite search engine Google.  A Google spokesperson has revealed that the Californians will start selling e-books from late June or July.


Google Editions is the name coined by the search engine giants for their e-book service. Chris Palma, Google’s manager for strategic-partner development, made this huge announcement at a event titled The Book on Google: Is the Future of Publishing in the Cloud?
