Free Kindle eBooks from Microsoft Press: W8.1, Azure, SQL Server and more

If you like free technology e-books, you can scoop up the “Introducing Windows 8.1 for IT Professionals” Kindle ebook (140 pages, Oct-2013 publication) by author Ed Bott from the Amazon Kindle store. I don’t know if this is a limited time offer or like this on an on-going basis. This is a Microsoft Press book, it’s not some random self-published book.

February 2 from 4 to 7pm local time: free Yogurtland yogurt and toppings

On Monday February 2nd in 2015, between 4 and 7 pm local time, Yogurtland will be offering free yogurt and toppings. The offer is valid at participating locations only. The email does not provide further details on the promotion. If you have a busy Yogurtlandia near you, expect a zoo because many like free. On the other hand, if there is a new location, or at a not-so-busy area, you may be able to breeze in and out. Also working in favor of the free-fans, February is typically quite cold, so not everyone would be motivated to eat frozen yogurt, even if it’s free.

Free from Google Play: Gravity (HD movie) and Steve Aoki album

Google Play is back with another round of freebies. First up, Steve Aoki’s mp3-album “Neon Future” is free for a limited time. It has a total of 12 tracks with a 49 minute run time.

Next up, a movie, and a big and recent one! Gravity in HD! That’s the one with Sandra Bullock. For this one, you may have to follow the link from your Google Play e-mail to get it for free, because if you visit the movie’s Google Play page directly it shows a $10 price. If you have a Google Play account, it means you also have an email associated with it. So check there and look for the Google Play email announcing this offer. You must grab it before 1/30/15, but don’t wait until the last minute, sometimes these things end earlier.

HBO Preview on AT&T Uverse: January 9 to 11 (2015)

If you have AT&T Uverse TV service, HBO is having another weekend preview, from January 9-11 (Friday AM to Sunday PM) in 2015, to celebrate the start of their new TV series “Togetherness”, along with the return of Girls and other half hour HBO original shows (which is often when premium cable networks offer free previews). Also participating in this promotion is Cinemax which is slowly but steadily developing its own line of original TV shows, albeit not at the HBO level.

UPDATE: Showtime is now running ads during commercial breaks on Uverse saying they too will have a free preview (SD and HD) at the same time, Friday through Sunday night.
