Second to that. If you don't like sharing then don't press that button. Reading many posts one can conclude that every single Kindle owner on this planet has something that bothers him about Kinde. It looks like a product failed big time, but in fact we all love our Kindles. So stop complaining about tweets, face, dead writers and "forward button that should be 1/100 of an inch more to the left" and stuff. Enjoy your Kindle people and don't waste your life writing about a needle in a haystack

It's not just the K3, but a lot of programs these days want to hook you up to twitter Facebook. Facebook I can understand even though it's overload. But twitter is twap. It's like reading a scrolling text file. And there's too much not worth reading there that I don't use it.

I'd rather have an option to disable this "feature", but seeing I can back-page out of it, I'm not that bothered. Still, I do think this is a portent for something a bit more intrusive in future.

Yep, as I said: "But seeing I can back-page out of it, I'm not that bothered." It's great that we're all readers here.
