Amazon Kindle, Part 1
Posted on Wednesday, July 1, 2009 at 8:20 PM
I'm a relatively new user of the Amazon Kindle, and I've become a fanatic.
My lovely wife bought me a Kindle 2 for my birthday, and I've used it daily in the two-plus months since. I've purchased multiple books, newspapers, even subscribed to a blog. Now, I've added a blog from bakersfield.com -- where I work -- to Amazon's list of offerings (more on that in a subsequent installment).
In multiple posts, I'll detail some things that interest me about the Kindle, beginning with Version 2.0 and it's brilliant design. I'll also tackle some amazing but very subtle things Amazon is doing to pull customers into its grasp, as well as challenges and opportunities in local marketplaces.
