Steve Renner On Amazon Kindle

Posted by Steve Renner as Amazon, Internet Marketing

I resisted writing about Amazon Kindle sooner, not because it isn’t cool, just didn’t get the time yet. (only so many hours in the day)

Today I got inspired and submitted my Internet Marketing Blog to Kindle and was accepted, no problem. I did this for a couple reasons, I thought it could be a new source of traffic, and a possible a link back from Amazon. (a good thing!)

Kindle: Amazon’s 6″ Wireless Reading Device (Latest Generation)

So what the heck is Kindle? I heard about Kindle, goofy name - I would have come up with something cooler, a while ago in an article in the Minneapolis paper. ( shows The Power Of A Press Release )

Now I normally don’t read the paper, but I saw one laying around with a picture of Jeff Bezos picture and this new device.

My 1st experience with it was when I went to order Twitter Power By Joel Comm. the book came in Kindle Format, so I had to download it for my iPhone.

Kindle is a Reading Device, that allows you to read books, newspapers, blogs and just about anything.
