These are my links for October 5th through October 10th:

• Essential SNMP: Chapter 2: A Closer Look at SNMP –

Books that are no longer under copyright can now be downloaded in full (in pdf format) from Google Book Search for free.

While this is hardly a new idea (see: the Perseus Digital Library or Project Gutenberg), it is the first time they are in full PDF format. This should preserve the format and style of the pages, not just the text.
