To get more people thinking and talking about software architecture, I'm offering free copies of my Software Architecture for Developers ebooks for meetups. Simply organise a meetup on a software architecture related topic (see below) and send me a link to your meetup/event page by e-mail ([email protected]). I will help you promote the event on Twitter, etc. Then, a few days before the meetup itself, send me another e-mail indicating what the expected audience numbers will be and I'll send you a special URL that you can distribute to the attendees for them to download a free ebook related to the theme of the meetup.
