There was a great iPod utility
http://www.http.com//ebookhood.com

that took plain text files of, say, fanfics, and converted them so that you could read them on your iPod; just went to use it and it was gone.

Anyone know of an alternative? I searched but most links just pointed at this, still.

It was really, really handy and I loved reading fic on my iPod but it was nice to swap stories in and out and now I can't :-(

Someone on my f-list linked to this a couple of days ago and I forget who (brain = sieve), but thank you!

You don't download anything; just save a fic as plain text, it coverts it instantly into a zipped file, which you download, then you plug your iPod into your computer, go to it in My Computer, move the zipped file to the 'Notes' bit (in Extras) and unzip it along the way and presto; fic is now on your iPod and you can read it. Tiny chunks, yes, so not advised for epics, but whee, I can read fic on it AND watch vids.

Yip with a sideorder of eee!
