I know what you mean. I mean I have tweeted and done a lot of things from my Kindle but it’s far from perfect. In the age of iPhone and Droids of this world, you’d expect Amazon to add real web functionality to Kindle soon. But here is the catch: Amazon’s free wireless service may not be sustainable.

I’m typing this on my kindle right now. My problem is any time I do anything on Facebook, it always brings me back to the log in page so it’s more trouble than it’s worth. Hopefully they will figure out how to fix this soon.

Why not just improve or write a special “kindle” version of the facebook interface so we can log on from our kindles? I tried logging on once and while I was able to do it, it was so slow it wasn’t worth the effort.

My point is that people have not had much luck monetizing social networks and I doubt Amazon would do much better.

It is something i think they should add to the kindle. I would love to be able to see what my friends are reading and recent reviews they have posted. I just don’t see it being a huge feature that is going to sell more kindles.

Shelfari? Aren’t we tired of all these companies creating their own social networks? Facebook might help Amazon sell more because they got millions of folks. Shelfari is not that popular. Not in the same class as Facebook or MySpace.

It is an interesting idea.

Amazon already owns Shelfari a social network for book lovers.

I have not seen much evidence that people have found a way to use social networks to increase sales. It would just be another nice feature.

Yes amazon should work on social networking integration on the kindle platform, but i don’t think it is a big deal and can wait. I would rather have them do it right the first time.
