Free PDF Weekend!

[Mark]

Remember that Free PDF Weekend is just around the corner. It coincides with Labor Day weekend in the USA, in 2007 from Friday, August 31st thru Monday, September 3rd, and comes roughly opposite of GM's Day on the yearly calendar. So what is it all about?

Well, primarily it is about the giving. It is about electronic publishers of pdfs getting the chance to make a grand gesture and give a little something extra to the fans. But it is also about the receiving. Customers receiving samples of the wares of many companies of which they may not have previously heard or tried.

So, those customers who are looking forward to the freebies, please feel free to post here in your excitement. Those publishers who are going to get involved this year, please feel free to post here, as well do whatever other promotion you feel necessary (starting your own thread, shooting off guns in the street, dancing until you drop, etc.)

I'll be posting more information here on my own involvement as the weekend approaches.

Happy Free PDF Weekend!

As always,

Yeah, I love this. I wouldn't have discovered so many PDF companies without this, plus I wouldn't have grown as accustomed to PDF's as I have.

So thanks guys! Its been a great sales pitch! At least for me!

I wish the ENWorld Bookshelf thing worked right so you could see how many PDF's I have bought the last two years. Let alone got for free. Conservative estimate for me is 70. Bought.

Companies have been asked to post in this thread, so that no one is put on the spot if they cannot get it together in time.

Looking forward to this again this year.

Looking forward to this again this year.

No doubt! It is fun to see what various companies come up with as freebies. Sometimes it becomes a chance for them to put out something small to test the water for a new line or to get something out that they do not feel could make for a full-sized project. Lots of possibilities!
