Free stuff!

I’m cheap.

There, I admitted it. In my little circle of friends, I’m know as the deal-finder. I like travelling cheap (though I don’t stay at cheap motels — my back’s too old for bad mattresses!). I like finding computer stuff cheap. I love finding great deals on gadgets. Better than cheap, though, is free. Loooove free!

So in checking out the blogosphere recently, I ran across an offer for a free blogging course. The catch? I have to link to it in my blog. So, here it is:

I’m evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they’re letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.

It covers:

• The best blogging techniques.
• How to get traffic to your blog.
• How to turn your blog into money.

I’ll let you know what I think once I’ve had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it’s still free.

So there’s the plug. My understanding is that it’s a pretty long course, but I’ll definitely post about it once I see what’s what. I’m hoping it will be worthwhile, since I’m still somewhat new to active blogging.

And moving on… if you haven’t checked out Wowio, I definitely recommend that you do! They provide PDF formatted eBooks at no charge. Sponsors pick up the tab. They have a lot of classics, graphic novels and various other books. You can also find some writing books there as well.

Also, have a look at Giveaway of the Day, a website which offers free-for-a-day licensed software. The range of software they provide is vast. I’ve gotten useful note-taking software, some good organizational software and even a couple writing-specific types of software. You must download and activate the software on the day it is offered, but you can use it forever (as long as your computer doesn’t crash!). It’s a site I check every day.

So there’s some free stuff. Enjoy!
