You�??d normally pay $US 20 and up for a guide book to Australia�??s Great Barrier Reef, but DiveAdvisory.org have been giving away a 71 page book on the GBR for free from their website. It�??s a download rather than a physical book, but as it�??s all done in PDF format it looks like a book with lots of colour photos and a host of information about the diving the reef and what to expect to see there. Their blurb says:

�??Our e-book provides useful and practical information about all aspects of scuba diving holidays on the Great Barrier Reef, including: PADI certifications, dive holiday options, dive courses, dive safety, dive insurance, DAN, accommodation, general tourist attractions and how to save money without sacrificing quality.

All of this is combined with operator listings, full colour photos, maps and a marine identification guide.�?�

For free, you really can�??t go wrong. This is a great resource for finding out more about the Barrier Reef and deciding where to dive along its vast length. Grab it before it disappears off their site! [Crossposted from my scuba diving site Divehappy.com]

Cory Doctorow said this when it was originally released:

“Put down that ‘Prague on $5 a Day,’ you hippie! Justin’s Tokyo-On-No-Yen-Just-Confused-Smiles will have you flirting, reeling with liquor and dressed up like an extra from a bootleg high-school production of Neuromancer as you chow down on a hearty breakfast of vending-machine schoolgirl panties. As you lie awake in your coffin hotel, listening to the midnight symphony of salaryman flatulence and drunken good cheer, fire up your DoCoMo handset, aim its flat-panel display at this book and read and you will feel comforted.”

Just In Tokyo is free to download under Creative Commons license, but author Justin does suggest a donation if you enjoy it. And why not. Visit the download page.
