Great list, and mighty useful. Only one complaint:
Prominently absent from the "Phone Service" list, the damn-near-indispensable Ureach.
By the way, anyone else notice any glaring exceptions? We could turn this thread into "Free Schwag Central".

Bleah. They named Books-On-Line as "the best place to find texts." I think they swipe most of their information from The University of Pennsylvania's On-Line Books Page.

I've found Doteasy to be a reliable, albeit bare-bones free host. They say they make their money by sending out a daily newsletter, but at this point, it's closer to a monthly newsletter.

I'm thinking they're not going to be around long.

The best place for online texts is Gnutella.
