Default Another Free E-Book-A-Day Promo At eReader.com

http://promo.ereader.com/free/

I'm not sure if this just started or if it has been going on since December 1. eReader.com is giving away a different free ebook each day. Today's ebook is The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction August 2005 which is the latest one in ebook format. Normally these are $3.99. You do have to create an account with them which includes a credit card number. They use that to encode the ebook so you are less likely to share with the world. That is the kind of DRM I like. No activation or rootkit or any other nonsense.

So, go ahead and add a repeating task to your Pocket PC from now until December 31 to check out what they are releasing each day.

Default Free e-books

Don't panic, it's only day 2 of the free e-books. There was a romance book yesterday - I didn't pay much more attention than that because it's not my sort of thing, but I downloaded today's!

What? You don't like romances? Will Dick marry Jane? Will Jane tell Dick about her secret affair with Eric? Will Eric tell Jane about his secret affair with Dick?

Sorry, I got caught up there for a moment.

Joe almost marries Jane, but Jack recently finds out that Jane were cheating on with Dick, therefore he tells it to Joe. Joe decides to cancel the wedding. Jane is crying. Still crying. And still crying. Anyways, Eric meets with Donna again, and tells her, that he still loves her. Donna replies that she will marry with Dick anyways, and it is too late. They are both crying. And crying. Still crying. CUT

Whoops, this was a spoiler, wasn't it?

</sarcasm>

Just a heads-up.... On December 27th, the free ebook will be "Star Trek: Titan - Taking Wing" the first book of the new series about Captain Riker (Commander Riker from Star Trek:TNG.) A really good read for any Trekkies..
