Yes, that’s correct folks.   The physical book destroyer is making a return this holiday season with part deuce.  Actually, 2 new models are coming out, one is going to be smaller than the original and will be a bit more user friendly, the second model should is going to larger than the old kindle and is going to com in different colors…oh joy.

Why not take advantage of the Kindle’s portability and work out  some sort of networking play to connect with other Kindle users locationaly or topically?  People are going to be walking around the streets, sitting on subways, or relaxing in parks with the Kindle, and everyone will be able to connect to a database of books to download.  But, why not allow the users to connect amongst themselves?  Create Kindle communities for people who are reading the same book or creae a recommendations system for books, much like Amazon does on their homepage.

The point is there are a lot of avenues that Amazon can explore with the kindle and simply focusing on an online book database is just the beginning.  The kindle has a lot of potential to expand into the “people” networking space and I hope that we eventually see it move in that direction.

What do you think of the Amazon Kindle?  What potential do you see for it?

Thanks for reading
