Co-founder, with Carla Douglas, of Beyond Paper Editing

You can take a document that you have purchased through Amazon–you can mark up all your annotations, and those are stored in the cloud, which is absolutely brilliant, because you can copy and paste that and share that. You can’t do that at this time with Personal Documents. So if Amazon is listening, that’s my wish list. I would love for them to make that available for Personal Documents.

How You Can Support E-Books for Troops

Thanks to your generous support after last week’s show, we raised more than $1,500. Thank you! This means we have $3,500 left to raise in order to meet this year’s fundraising goal. Click here to help, so we can continue to distribute donated Kindles to U.S. Soldiers deployed overseas.

Thanks to all of you who are already supporting E-Books for Troops!

Music for my podcast is from an original Thelonius Monk composition named “Well, You Needn’t.” This version is “Ra-Monk” by Eval Manigat on the “Variations in Time: A Jazz Persepctive” CD by Public Transit Recording” CD.
