Daniel Solove's recent book The Future of Reputation: Gossip, Rumor, and Privacy on the Internet is now available for free online. I learned this via Danah Boyd's blog -- she is apparently the one to thank for this, and she offers kudos to Yale University Press.
As someone who has been aware of this book since it appeared, I'm happy that I can now read a chapter or two for free, but I'll probably still wait to get it from the library. I'm not likely to buy it in hardcover or to read the whole thing online. If the publisher had put it out as a $20-or-cheaper paperback in the first place I'd have snapped it up quick.
