Google IS the Internet. Well, it's not true, but it certainly feels that way quite often. Perhaps it's a deserved title with services (on top of their search) like GMail, Google Video, Google Desktop Search, Picasa, Froogle, Google Maps, Google Local, and the list goes on and on. All free, almost all great.

BookSwim.com is America's only hardcover/paperback online book rental service. Utilizing the Netflix rental model, similar to GameFly and BagBorrowandSteal, BookSwim acts as a book rental library club. They offer no due dates, no late fees and free home delivery with prepaid return bags.
BookSwim's rental plans range from 2 to 11 books at a time and from $14.99 to $35.99 monthly, with no limit on the number of rentals per month.
Founded in 2006 by NJIT graduates, George Burke and Shamoon Siddiqui, BookSwim has a strong focus on the environment. Not only does BookSwim.com encourage book-renting as a great way to reduce the number of trees cut down each year for virgin paper, but they also plant a tree for every Gift Subscription sold, through a partnership with EcoLibris.
For consumers, BookSwim acts as a supplement to local libraries and a relief for those who live debilitatingly far from their nearest rural library. With the cost of an average best-seller at over $22, BookSwim's rental plans are designed to save money over buying just one new book each month.
BookSwim also works with library systems and senior centers, providing multiple copies of new and popular books, as well as facilitating supplies for book discussion groups and summer reading programs.
