@Find Ebooks w/ Google

Google has been known as a reliable search engine known to mankind. It is also function as a hacking tool to finding the most randomly illegal stuff available in the net. Finding pron, warez, etc. is possible through this Google hack, but I have to say it isn't worth the trouble of using Google when you already use numerous p2p progs/apps available out there (i.e.: mIRC). Not all of them are a waste though. Here is one that seems to be getting the crave. Finding ebooks with Google. I have tried it myself, but not with this command line. I only used part of it (intitle:"index.of").

Here is the complete command line or I guess, keywords to finding ebooks with Google.
Google keywords: -inurl:htm -inurl:html intitle:"index of" +("/ebooks"|"/book") +(chm|pdf|zip)

"What does all of this mean? The -inurl htm and -inul html is attempting to get rid of regular webpages and show just index pages [may I also add: -inurl shtml]. Looking for index of in the title is doing the same. Using the pipe ( | ) tells google to look for something OR something else. Here were are telling google to look for book or ebook directories... and we have listed several common ebook formats (zip, pdf, chf)." (Hotniss.com)

You simply type all the keywords in order or not in order to find any book you want. Of course there are limits on what you can find. Not EVERY book is available in ebook version. But I gotta admit, you find the most strangest stuff with this Google Hack (i.e.: KFC fried chicken recipe)

Here's an example: -inurl:htm -inurl:html intitle:"index of" +("/ebooks"|"/book") +(chm|pdf|zip) +"linux"
