What’s a “Kindle?”
March 13th, 2010 by DebraDavisHinkle
Do you know what a “Kindle” is? I didn’t, but I think every writer is going to have to learn what it is. Before you view the YouTube video below, I think we need a definition of the following:
* An ebook (for electronic book: also digital book: also online book: also ecobook) is the digital media equivalent of a conventional printed book. Such documents are usually read on personal computers, or on dedicated hardware devices known as e-book readers. Definition from http://e-library.net/
The answer to the question is that a Kindle is a type of e-book reader. It is a “brand” name now, but I think Kindle readers use to only read Amazon Kindle e-books.
Watch these YouTube videos for more information. Hopefully, you already know what a YouTube video is. If not, you will.

Another brand of ebook reader:

Nice! That’s a great, easy intro to the e-book readers! I’ve actually never looked into all the features, because I thought I already knew what they did–but this showed me some features I didn’t know about at all.
Good for comparison shopping, too!
