Smile Hello from the Middle of the Mitten!
Hi Everyone! I've had my kindle2 for a couple of weeks and love it! I'm a bit of a gadget/tech geek I guess. I'm looking forward to finding out what else I can do with my kindle.

Welcome, just me............

If my geography is correct, you are from Michigan?


We're a world wide community, and lots of our members won't know where you are located by the nickname.

Enjoy the forums.........and your k2.

Welcome to MR, Just Me

Congratulations on your Kindle 2 and below are a few "things" that you might be interested in exploring.

Links Every Kindle Owner Should Have

From the MR Wiki...

Kindle 2 US, Int'l and Kindle DX Font Hack
Kindle 2 US, Int'l and Kindle DX Screen Saver Hack
Kindle Myths and Partial Truths
Amazon Kindle DX
E-book formats

You can even explore using Calibre and Kovid, the creator, frequents the forums here. We even have a dedicated Calibre forum.

Did you know that MR has free ebooks? They have been beautifully handcrafted by some very dedicated MR members. (I believe that they are better formatted than Google books.)

For your Kindle..Mobi / prc format ebooks

download the MobiGuide and get your books via Whispernet..(up on the top left in the blue bar.. click on ebooks.. then in the drop down menu choose Mobipocket download guide)


Free ebook sites

feedbooks.com This site also has a Kindle Guide to download and you can get their books via Whispernet - there is a video on how to use the guide.
manybooks.net

Free and for purchase ebooks

smashwords.com
baen.com
Plus Baen has a great free library

Have fun exploring the forums and ask if you have any questions.

Thanks Everyone!
DesertGrandma-I realize that not everyone will recognize the descriptive "middle of the mitten" for my mid-Michigan location, but we could all use a geography lesson! ;-)
Pendragginp-Yup! a little north of Lansing.....so you're a Yooper! Beautiful country up there!
Dreams-Thanks for the links! Off to explore!
