Also, when this thread is moved, a link can be left here to jump over to the moved thread giving the best of both worlds. But just leaving it here is a bad idea. The idea behind Deals, Freebies, and Resources was to post deals, freebies, or resources. And this post beings there since it deals with freebies. So please move it where it belongs.
We've have already discussed this angle earlier in the thread, the moderators have already decided that it's ok here...can't you drop it?

Kindle deals and non-Kindle deals will continue to be posted in the Deals, Freebies, and Resources forum (and I will add the Kindle deals to the list )

-----------------

Again, this thread is meant to be a master list.

So the scenario that's probably going to happen 99.9% of the time is:

Kindle owner notices that _______ book is free, posts a thread about it in the Freebie section.

I see thread, add _______ to list.

or

I notice ________ is no longer free and remove it from the list.

Sony users and people with other readers continue life as normal.

Kindle users get a list of all the free stuff available without having to dig through multiple threads or troll Amazon's bestseller list.

------------

Yes, if somebody only post in here that a free book is available...I'll inform them to also make a thread in Freebie or I'll do it myself and give credit to the original poster.
