Looks like the Amazon Top 100 page works too (pointed out by Blog Kindle).

It's a bit non-obvious and hidden on Amazon but you can get a list of Kindle apps here

Nice! How did you even get to that page?

Blog Kindle · 05-02-2011, 01:22 AM

Start here and click on "Customer favorites"

Oh wow! I had no idea that you could click that.

It's irritating that active content appears to only be available to people in the US at present. I do hope this changes eventually.

Hey, you have no time for "active content" you have books to edit!

And thanks for your efforts.

I'm wondering this as well. It seems a little bizarre that active content is restricted to the US since there shouldn't be publisher restrictions.

Histerius · 05-02-2011, 07:29 PM

But there are copyright restrictions, I guess, just like with any other software.

I think the Notepad guy mentioned it was a matter of cost/delivery by Amazon on Active Content.

thomass · 05-03-2011, 04:38 PM

should contain links to categorize in terms of price(for example:free, 0.99$, others) also (games, other apps),... this could be provided by some links in the pages. it need not to be a permanent categorization.

What's the significance of active content?

Blog Kindle · 05-03-2011, 11:36 PM

Its pretty much another name for apps. While Kindle does have a web browser that supports ajax, apps are more optimized for slow eInk screen and make their respective tasks a whole lot easier.
