Hey, cool! A free book.

I love SitePoint's books. They've never failed to deliver great material, and I'm an easy sucker for their "download the PDF for $10 before the book arrives" deals. Free poster, free samples, blah blah blah -- SitePoint rocks! I've learned a ton about CSS and Javascript through their recent offerings.

As further proof of their amazingness, they've just released a new book about developing Ruby on Rails web applications. And this book is free -- no samples, no gimmicks, you get the whole thing as a downloaded .pdf.

I've not yet taken the time to learn much about Ruby on Rails, but now the "I can't afford it" excuse is out the window. Let's see what I can learn!
