I'm curious to know if people are actually using Amazon's new gifting feature for Kindle books. It seems like most of the people I'll be buying gifts for aren't big e-readers, and so I'd have to hope that a book arriving in their email would act sort of like a gateway drug and get them hooked on e-reading. And then there are the rest of my friends who are all 1-clicking fiends, leaving me no time to get them a book we're excited about before they already have it.

Will you be doing a lot of ebook gifting? Who are you sending ebooks to? Anybody else feeling like me, that it's a great feature but will get used rarely?

Happy Holidays everyone!
