Well, whaddya know. We are moving into a new era, for sure!
2009 Christmas season
Kindle was the most gifted item in Amazon’s history
I’m not surprised!
However, Amazon gave no sales figures for the device or the electronic book sales.
Of interest, perhaps, is that Amazon does not pay bloggers when a blog reader orders an ebook, only for paper books that are purchased via a blog, if that app has been activated.
It’s a first:
2009 More electronic books sold for Kindle than paper books
The sales record was achieved on Friday, December 25, Christmas Day, when people who had received a Kindle as a present logged on to Amazon.com to load their new Kindle with reading material.
Topic of conversation when traveling
Who knew!
Reading an ebook, my Kindle, becomes a way to meet people — either those who already have a Kindle or those who want to know or ask about it.
I met some cool folks on recent travels.
I did not see any other ebooks, only Kindle.
Do you have an ebook reader? What Kind, if not Kindle?
Do you have a Kindle?
I do. The more I use it, the better I like and enjoy it, especially for travel.
I’m trying to be carefully frugal. Most of my ebooks now are free ones, but I am slowly buying a few too.
I’m waiting for Kindle to match the Sony ebook capability of reading library books. That would be great! Do you think it will happen?
What’s your favorite genre?
