Mobile eBooks Etc

Ok, I gave up. Since I cannot post mobile ebooks here for copyright reasons, I guess it won’t harm my blog if I post some of the websites I know for free ebook download. I’m also receiving some email inquiries about ebook links. If you intend to read the ebooks on mobile, don’t forget to browse the ebook conversion because most websites are using ebook format not intended for mobile and as well as the mobile application needed for your mobile ebook reading. Otherwise, just download the necessary ebook reader for your computer.

I will update this post if I found more free ebook download sites. Take note that I will not post direct links of certain ebooks. I’ve categorized the sites based on ebook format.

Its been a while since I made my last post regarding Entrecard. Entrecard came out with new awesome features. The linked blog feature allows entrecard users to add multiple blogs to their account. This is good news to bloggers who have multiple blogs, no need to sign out and sign in back again to another account just to drop cards. I’ve already linked my personal blog, its so easy to use now. The switch link can be found at the upper right side, beside the email address. No need to clear cookies now and sending credits to my other blog is just a click.

When I started on mobile ebook reading, aside from where to get the ebook files, the transfering of ebook files to mobile is another problem. Of course, these days there are numerous solution especially if you have access to computer. Let me share the things I did before (no PC access) and the present solution to this problem. Again, I’m concentrated on symbian 60 phone mobile ebooks.

Here they are:

• Direct download using built in browser and other third party browser (Opera and the like) - the common way to download files provided that you have a working gprs and/or internet settings connections. This way, it doesn’t matter whether you have the direct link or simply search for the files.
• Download using fget - fget is a mobile application wherein the only purpose is to download files such as ebooks and other files. Click here for more details.

You are in a quiet place, lets say in a beach. You saw a person gazing on his mobile phone screen without blinking, sometimes changing his facial expression. He didn’t make any movement on his cellphone, just a pressing a single press on his keypad. Reading his body language made you think, what’s with this person? What is he doing? Maybe looking to a picture? But why it doesn’t look like that? Why changing his facial expression? Reading his body language will made you think that he looked stupid or rather dumb. 

Did you picture that scenario on your mind?  Read more »

Who doesn’t want freebies? Free marketing ebook… squidoo ebook… blog marketing strategies ebook… how to blog ebook… money making ebook… seo ebook… niche ebook, etc… these are some of the freebies I saw. It is indeed attracting and sounds interesting to people like me who really loves ebook.

When I started and got hooked with ebooks four years ago, it didn’t came to my mind that someday, ebooks would be part of blog marketing strategy to have the readers sign up for email subscriptions. My favorite blogger is doing this and he made the ebook himself taking some of the contents from his blog. And that made him different from the rest. Actually, as of this time, its not yet finish and I still didn’t know the title. I’m sure it worth the wait, although I’ve read all of his entries and I am his blog’s email subscriber, I don’t want to miss anything he added on his ebook. I guess, I’ll be converting that to mobile ebook for my private reading.

Four years ago, I was an active member of a girl forum. Most of the topics were mostly women’s talk, one thread caught my attention. It was Harry Potter’s comparison between the movie & the book. They’ve said, book version was far better than the movie. I want to disagree but I haven’t read any book of Harry Potter series. I want to have a copy but I cant afford it at that time. Then I searched for an alternative option, I saw a link on that forum, one of the member share her pdf copy of HP books. I’ve download them and researched on how can I have them read on my mobile phone, I was using Nokia 3650 at that time.

Since I’m into blogging already, I asked almost all of the co-bloggers for help. Sad to say, nobody got the answers. Buying a PDA was neither an option. There must be a solution! hehehe… I saw a thread at the “for sale” section of that forum. She’s selling ebooks as sideline, ebooks at 10php each in different formats. Order a minimum of 10 ebooks @ 10php (promo). Regular price was 50php per ebook. Have to try them first if its possible so I’ve ordered ebooks in pdb format. Why pdb? Read more »
