With good compression a lot of books will fit into 128KBytes!
can you give me links to such compressed books?

You can compress them yourself.

At http://www.gutenberg.org you have thousands of free books in multiple formats.

I've already suggested a few books in this thread.

Compression example for Alice in Wonderland:

1. Downloaded as plain UTF-8 text from here:

http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/11

size: 164KB

2. Compressed using zip (strongest compression)

result: alice_in_wonderland.zip

size: 59KB

uploaded the file here: https://mega.co.nz/#!scRmSTQL!dQyGWwaitmOjyfpoSv_wLTXAjkZBKfL5ogTldF7Me1E

what do you think: should be books uploaded now, but split into chunks (as zip chunking), or should we wait until 'big file' functionality is finished?

Bidji, you gave excellent idea. It will be very helpful and symbolic to get such document into blockchain and announce info about it via different news portals.
And if you want something to have some sucess in europe just make a little mp3 with this "Ode to Joy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax9SOup0054  Wink

How useful is the block chain in Datacoin to store data?

What kinds of files can it store? How large of files can you upload?

Is it easy to upload/download them from the block chain, or does it take many steps?

I'm somewhat interested in this concept.

I +1 this. How do you go about putting data in the chain? Very intriguing..

You can do it yourself using command line tools, or register at this website and use the UI to upload any files you want to the blockchain (you pay in DTC for the upload):

https://krypte.net/

Downloading is easy.

Maybe because of my origin country i would like to see Homer's Odyssey

Now this is a good list http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_books_banned_by_governments if we want to be a little aggressive Tongue

Btw seriously personally i wouldnt like to see Bible there as one of the first books. Maybe i would prefer the On the Origin of Species before any religious text...

If i would have only 1 choice i think i would choose Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica ...

+1 the Bible is full of hatred

So we need more suggestions from the community - maybe 10 books total to be uploaded Smiley

Are these books non-copyrighted ?

Copyright expires 70 years after the death of the author. So you can read/use/publish the 4 books I've suggested for free.
Good, I'll think about more books with expired copyrigth

1000 of them are here for download:

I agree. I think free (copyright expired) ebooks should be stored early on. I would donate 10 DTC to the unofficial team if someone took it up.

Candidates (bzip compressed 50-200 KB / book):

Moby Dick: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2701

Beowulf: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16328

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/11

Les Misérables: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/135

We should not include copyrighted books. That's a bad idea for a start.

p.s.

Don't forget to vote for Datacoin:

Great idea! I vote for "1984" and "Fahrenheit 451"!

It's so good for promotion of datacoin! Where all guys from anonymous group? It would be useful for them Smiley
