How to squeeze the most of your Kindle – Hypertext

Voyage and Kindle Paperwhite 11

Speaking of electronic reading today is doing virtually Amazon Kindle. Although there are a lot of quality opponents like the Sony PRS, the effect of the digital reading Kindle is similar to the iPod in changing the business of selling physical discs, remaining as a great reference. Therefore, and for its great versatility thanks to the great Amazon cloud and utility WiFi Kindles most recent, with the launch of the new Kindle Paperwhite and Voyage, today we review the most interesting features that make the most your Kindle.

The first step for all what we will do next (using Amazon account and WiFi) is going to the Amazon Kindle settings and enable receipt of mails in the Kindle for each service we add.

Reading Lists

 This looks a list of Readlists.

This looks Readlists list.

All the aspects that touch on trying obviously on readings. The first thing for which I use my Kindle every week, especially when I do some research work of the university, or I want to report a particular subject, most recently the Greek conflict is draw up a list of reading Kindle understood as journal , generating “magazines” with index. With Readability Readlists we can send at once in our Kindle many articles (or even other electronic readers that accept .epub). As I say, I think it is the best service for thematic collections .



Pocket or Instapaper on your Kindle

As already explained my partner Gabriela Gonzalez in his ” tricks and hacks to get the most out of your Kindle, “ Instapaper is a service of collection of links for further reading lets you send periodically or a single file to Kindle . When they arrive, setting our email Kindle, do as we receive Readlists, as a magazine.

 Pocket to Kindle

Pocket does not offer something, which is a shame, but there are alternatives to achieve our saved articles have this service available in Kindle and spend long summer evenings reading. Although the powerful Calibre offers a similar option (and more archaic), my favorite service is P2K or “ Pocket to Kindle “, a simple web service that allows newspapers shipments with elected by us or single event in our reading list for our Kindles times. I like that, for example, can choose whether or not to archive messages in Pocket once they are enviandos the device, which was not possible with Calibre. As Instapaper, with P2K magazine articles also reach format. For me it is, without doubt, the must bigger, because I like to rest your eyes away from your smartphone or tablet.



Sending loose items

Send to Kindle

We recently published two applications a day related to sending the Kindle loose items. The first is DroidToReader, a simple free utility for Android, and the second, Comfy Read, its alternative payment for iOS. For those who make only occasional shipments, I think they are options to be taken into account. If we want to send from the computer, you can always use extensions for browsers official service Send to Pocket.



Organize your library in the cloud

Calibre to organize and send files to the cloud is a very powerful application, and especially essential.

Calibre to organize and send files to the cloud is a very powerful application, and especially essential.

Like to organize photos with Adobe Lightroom may be best to manage a large library, do so with regard to our library Calibre e-book is the best every possible idea to know where to look. With Calibre can send files to Kindle by Gmail, and reaching the free storage in our Amazon account (5GB), all permance in the cloud sync between all of our smartphones, tablets or readers, with notes, clippings or reading position for each book … I mean, Calibre is fine as an organizer, but if your use of these elements is hardcore I recommend fully make use of the cloud.
