Gavin, on January 5, I blogged on what X-Ray is like and included the following:

" A free Kindle book that uses the "X-ray" feature
The House of the Whispering Pines, by Anna Katharine Green, 13 customer reviews, 3.8 stars, $0.00 (Link: http://amzn.to/house-whispering-pines )

The new X-RAY feature for Kindle Touch:
I'm including this Kindle book again for the apparently millions who now have a Kindle Touch model, because Chloe from the Kindle forums mentioned it as a free book that has the new X-ray feature. Many have wondered how the X-ray feature works.

I'd explained some of it in the The X-Ray reference tool - What it does blog article, but that doesn't do much good if you can't see it in action, and it's hard to know which of the newer Kindle books has been given this feature."


Also, on February 26, I used it much more and really liked it on the Steve Jobs book that has so many characters I couldn't remember who was who or what they contributed (usually a lot). And showed more of how X-ray helps in this type of book:

One person I looked up who was influential back then turned out to still be VERY influential in Google's latest social network stuff.
