“I don’t think I could ever get used to using an e-reader.”
“Me, too. I love
holding books and being able to highlight them and write notes in them.”
I previously thought like that, too. Now I am finding that I love my Kindle more
and more as I learn to use more of its features. My current fave features are
bookmarking, highlighting, adding notes and the “My Clippings” folder.
I was cognizant that I could bookmark, highlight and add notes
to my e-books and that this information was mysteriously stockpiled for me
somewhere. Half-heartedly I had employed
these features without comprehending their fuller potential. This morning I accessed the stored
information from these features via the USB cord and my laptop – viola! The “My Clipping” folder unearthed the treasure
trove.
Sweet! Now I am able to
search and manipulate these notes digitally -- which means that I will be able
to find things much more quickly (not to mention be able to find them at
all). Along with the newly added option
of borrowing e-books from the library, my note-taking and research abilities
are greatly enhanced.
What
features are your favorites? How are you
using them to benefit you and others?
