So, if at all interested in a newer free book, download it while you can.
I'll look for other interesting ones this weekend.
REGULAR UPDATE: 8/29/09 - Original posting was 7/26/09.
These two books were free but now cost $9.99. They're here for the record.
I'm not around much on the weekends - so, for the many new readers who visit each day and for those who don't usually have time to explore the right-hand column of more permanent links to useful tips and information, I'll highlight the "Free [or low-cost] Kindle books box from that side-column.
The book above is Raising Jake by Charlie Carillo, and the book on the left is Click on the images to get the details for each book.
Both are
Besides the usual new $$$-books, we can enjoy Classics for free, both from Amazon and from other book sites, many directly downloadable to the Kindle. A few are promotional and free for only a while.
1. Amazon's 7,000+ free books, sorted by:
"Bestselling" or by "Avg Customer Review"
2. Amazon's currently free Non-Classics - This one changes.
a. That link above is to Non-Classics sorted by BESTSELLERS.
b. Here are Non-Classics sorted by NEWEST first.
3. "Big Deals on Kindle" - This one doesn't change enough.
4. Project Gutenberg e-books (MOBI ed) catalog for Kindles. You can search the catalog on your Kindle and click on one to have it downloaded to your Kindle from the site. There are no Amazon charges on a download from this site.
5. A long Amazon Forum thread on a million or so books readable on the Kindle - How to get them (mostly free)
ALSO, previously featured free non-fiction books that are free or under $1.00
1. (Recommended under-$1 books)
2. Amazon's most popular free books.
AND remember Michael Rubin is offering, for a limited time, the full text of his $35 "Droidmaker" book on George Lucas and Lucasfilm via a set of 3 PDFs. The photos from the book are included.
Some of this will be redundant, but at least there are a lot of choices for people on a budget.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.
Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.
Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.
Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.
Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).
IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.
TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
