David Meerman Scott's new book World Wide Rave free on Amazon Kindle

My friend David Meerman Scott is giving away his new book World Wide Rave free on Amazon Kindle.

Head over to his blog and click the download link.

The very cool thing about this is that you can also read the book on the iPhone Kindle application.

Just got a confirmation email from Amazon on my book order:
The following item is auto-delivered wirelessly to your Kindle, iPhone, or iPod touch. To start reading, go to your Kindle or the Kindle application on your iPhone or iPod touch.
It worked.

I am used to buying music from the iTunes store and Amazon.com. It's weird to buy something and have it directly downloaded to the device. Weird in a good way.

I think this is the first time I've ever experienced something like this. No wonder people love their Kindles.

If you want to meet David he's going to be in NYC today, Boston tomorrow (when I'm flying down to SXSW), and Saturday in Austin for SXSW.

See you in Texas!

The free Kindle download is scheduled to end on Sunday March 15, 2009.

Speaking of SXSW, I'm going to be participating in a Core Conversation on Monday at 3:30 with Bhaskar Roy from Qik.

Tinkerers Unite: Let Me Show You How it Works. Come by.

Also, here's my SXSW schedule, posted to the cool scheduling tool SCHED.
