accelerando now available for download

charles stross's latest novel, accelerando is now available online under a creative commons license. charles asks bittorrent be used. [i ordered my hardcopy sometime ago]

The book is available for reading in HTML, with minimal markup (to make it easier for web clipping utilities to digest it). In addition, zip archives are provided for download in a variety of formats. The primary formats are RTF and conformant HTML 4.0. For direct reading on PDAs and smartphones, a Plucker database is provided. Finally, there are (deprecated) plain text and Palm DOC versions – these lack typographic markup.

music: tbd. i'm thinking of haydn string quartets by amadeus quartet (trio) but i may go for something like mercan dede's secret tribe (nar) or electronic.
