See the Best Rated Free Kindle Books. Better than the bestseller lists. Handpicked and updated Daily (8AM CST). Most are free only for a limited time (24- 48 hrs) and don't show up on Amazon's Bestseller list (they might after being free). Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa) , Tracee Orman, Susana GR Delete the scoop?

I value textbooks. I still have some of mine from my college days.
An art/media teacher from the USA got fired for not 'buying in to' the school's for profit policy partnership to sell/rent online digital books to students. They are expensive, not needed (in his class) and they 'expire' so the students can not keep them as a resource. I am happy that the web and his students is coming to his defense. I hope that he gets another job soon where he feels valued. Unfortunately, he may have to move or make a long commute to find a new job. not fair! How do you feel?
