LibriVox Audiobooks Screensaver
The LibriVox Audiobooks screensaver shows public-domain books as volunteers finish recording them, gathered key-less by the pipeline: the title, the language it was read in, and how many hours of audio it runs to. It's free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
How the LibriVox Audiobooks screensaver works
The background pipeline reads this from LibriVox and saves a snapshot the saver loads.
