When I'm reading fiction I keep this feature off. Who cares what Alex Cross quote someone else found interesting? But when I am reading non-fiction, say a book on leadership, I find it very helpful to see what others found to be significant. This is actually one of my favorite features.
Now what would be really cool is if one could set up a network of certain users and only share highlights with them. My staff and I could all read the same book and share our highlights with each other! Come to think of it, with the ability to share highlights on Facebook there may already be a way for us to share highlights. Hmmm...
