This is a come-on for joining their 1st-month-free, $9.95/month-thereafter club.

Frankly, this is better than what is normally submitted to HN for things like this. Usually it's a web page about someone talking about how deep links in apps mean better engagement, offer up a blog post of the top 10 reasons... on the company blog for a company that tries to sell this very service.

Is the book any good though? Us Non-US users would be interested to know.

It's worth every penny! :)

Nope. No follow-on. Just making it free for a few days to share.

Sorry. I clicked on "Read for Free" when I should have clicked on "Buy now with 1-Click". That's how I was sucked into the join-our-club crap. My Amazon-UI-mind-reading powers are weak.

Nor France :)

It is currently US only. Global release should be later this year.

Thanks for offering your guide for free for a few days. These techniques are so important now with responsive frameworks taking over the web.

Thanks for this. Really clear writing, I'm devouring this quickly.

"This title is not currently available for purchase". What is it about self written e-books that makes one want to limit them to the US market?

Unfortunately, you have to get all the legal ducks in a row before you launch in each country.
