Automated Ebooks

I wonder if this genius reads the text he creates to make sure it makes sense otherwise it could be a load of old cobblers.

I've created a couple of ebook compilations from downloaded articles eg, "The Breast Cancer Ebook", details of which you can see here http://www.dwave.com.au/breast-cancer (Click the kangaroo at the bottom for a free download) It's earned me a bit of money since publication.

The point is, there are articles available on any topic that you can download automatically using programs like Article Miner. Reformat them and put them into an ebook and bingo, you have a compilation for which the various authors have given their approval to publish. The possibilities are endless as far as topics go.

The possibilities for computer generated text are endless.
