Has anybody seen this yet? On the Kindle's page on Facebook, Amazon announced they've created a new deal-a-day web page for Kindle ebooks! Today's deal is a "young readers" novel by a Newberry award-winning author, Kate Dicamillo. It's now available for just $1.39, and according to Amazon, the deals "go live at approximately 12:00 a.m. Pacific time and run for 24 hours!"

The link is in the first post. Today is the first day.
And Jon has posted a direct link to today's (August 24, 2011) title.
There's only one book each day.

I noticed this email this morning in my inbox. I almost "ran out" and bought the thing just because it was cheap! I don't need more temptation. My kindle already has about three pages of books that need to be read. No more...

Anyone know what the book was ranked previously? It's now #1 in the Kindle store. You can't buy advertising like that.
Or maybe you can. Maybe the book's publisher worked a deal with Amazon.

Thanks for the heads-up. Added it to my blog and am now following the Kindle Team on Twitter, in order to hopefully see each deal when it's announced.

 $1.49 today, but this one doesn't interest me in the least. Still, I thought I'd share.
