I had a discussion with a co-worker yesterday about Amazon Kindle, and he told me how buying Kindle has helped him in his personal life. Sounds corny, right? But he was telling me that he has developed a “super geek” reputation for owning Kindle. He is not a super Linux guru, and he does not live a second life as a hacker. All he did was showing up with Kindle to a college event (getting his MBA).
I know a lot of folks who read this blog have had Amazon Kindle for quite some time now. So I thought I’d ask you about your favorite moment with Kindle? Mine wasn’t a life changing moment, but rather a moment of pure joy. The very time the UPS driver knocked on my door and left Kindle on my door, I was on the moon. I had waited for the device for a months or so and to have finally gotten it was pure joy for me.
How about you? Do you have a life-changing experience with Kindle to share? Please share

No one life-changing experience
with Kindle
It’s more subtle
I ordered within the first 6 hours
Knowing it would fit
my nomad existence
and I wanted to read more
I guess finishing
the 6 Jane Austen novels
was the first benchmark
I’d never gotten through even one
back in my high school
budding Lit. major days
and was amazed to find
she of all her contemporaries
could tell a story
interestingly and succinctly
I’ll let you know
if I ever finish
War & Peace

No life changing experience. Finished more books on Kindle than ever. Ain’t paying shipping for books no more.

Good luck with that
I knew it was probably too corny for folks to have real life-changing experience with Kindle. Like I said, Kindle hasn’t changed my life dramatically but it just keeps me more excited about reading books.
