Kobo Pulse.....
I'm really hoping that you can opt out of this like you can opt out of Reading life being connected to FB. The pulse seems like it would be really annoying. |

There's quite a lengthy thread about this already in the Kobo forum:

This is for Kobo Pulse, that is for an upcoming announcement that was unknown at the time, the link for Kobo Pulse was posted there 3 hours after I made this thread.

Of course you can opt out ... in fact, you would have to opt in. It's integrated with Facebook for a start, so, no Facebook, no Pulse.

I really don't think it's going to be that great, I think having the ability to search Wikipedia would be better for getting information on a page.
