If you’re like me a few minutes ago, you’re wondering who Steven Poole is. He’s a blogger and the author of Trigger Happy, a non-fiction book on the aesthetics of video games. Anyway. He blogged about the Kindle and after the subsequent fooferaw, has decided to experiment with ebooks by giving his book away as a free PDF for a while.
I haven’t read the book, but here on the litfarm we’re intrigued by authors giving away free, electronic versions of their books, in the hopes it’ll translate into dead-tree sales. Or at least a little bit more glory.
So check it out. If you like it, why not pick up a copy? Or not. That’s ebooks for you.
