Kindel Book Reader for the iPad

I plut the Kindel book reader on the iPad because I couldn’t find the title I wanted for the iBook. But it works fine and while re-reading William Gibson’s Spook Country, I discovered an interesting feature.

I highlight or underline passages in paper books and the the ebook readers make this nice and easy. In the example below, I highlighted a line in yellow. Curious about the dashed line under the next paragraph I clicked and got the little explanation bubble.

This feature can be turned off but I think I’ll leave it on for now. Obviously I have at least one thing in common with those other readers: this book. Interesting to see what passages they find noteworthy.
