Social Networks via Kindle 3

Has anyone linked their Kindle 3 via the Social Networks option to Twitter and/or Facebook? Is it pretty much just for posting updates when you read reading certain books or are there other functions?

Just highlight a passage in a book and you should get the option to share it. I have tried it with my facebook account and it's quite neat - you can also write your own note. It should work wherever you are - you just need to link up to either facebook, twitter or both.

I would love similar link to my blog - that would be pretty useful

Unfortunately this feature is not available for international users. Don't know why... I'm interested in the connection to Facebook, could you post a example please? I'm interested to see how the notes are appearing on the site.

Here is a screen shot, using the new firmware, where my status says I finished a book.

The other shot is where I shared a quote from a book awhile back.
