So Chris Anderson is a top writer, superb ideas man, and really thought-provoking. However, I feel there is a certain sense of irony in his new book “Free”. Although, I really like the book and love the concepts within. I can’t get past the fact that I am being charged £18.99 for the book.
(Probably my fault for purchasing at Waterstone’s really.) I am aware that as a digital guy I probably should be downloading this for a Kindle or other e-book which I believe Chris did release for free for a limited time.
Quick fixes for Chris:
1) Each book that is purchased gives you free access to a recorded online webinar/interview with Chris Anderson
2) Each book has additional content that can be downloaded at www.longtail.com
3) The £18.99 is merely a donation to charity through the book, therefore rendering the book as “Free” or even freeing.
Great book though.
