Google Patents added a button that lets you download the PDF version of a patent. The option is available from the overview page and in the sidebar, when you browse the patent. Now you don't have to rely on
other sites that fetched the documents and converted them to PDF, but didn't have a very good search.
Why should you read patents, you may ask? Well, you could find interesting details about
Michael Jackson's special shoes that allowed him "to lean forwardly beyond his center of gravity", the design of
the Statue of Liberty or an advanced state of the art
movie theater.
