Look what I found!!!

I recently came across some *new* ebook sites because of all the amazing people I have met on Twitter. Oh, Twitter... how much I love thee!  (ahem) Anyways... Here are a few new ebook sites you should take a look at.  They also have traditional paper books as well.

Smashwords.com
Goodreads.com

 Oh oh oh!!! I also learned something new about the Kindle yesterday! SUPER excited! I think I heard about this lovely little thing when I first got Dragon a year ago... just wasn't interested because it wasn't really useful... BUT now it is!!! So excited!!

Kindle.Amazon.com

Basically.. this is a site for Kindle users (sorry Nook and Sony friends...go read up on NookFriends and Sony LendMe Friends for your version of this) to share what they have been up to on the Kindle.  You can make a profile about you (like Facebook but less crazy and much much more simple) and your reading habits. THEN you can share that profile/information with your new Kindle friends.  This way you can keep track of what your friends are reading, what they rated the ebook, their notes and higlights from the ebook and more! So much fun! If you have a Kindle and are obsessed like me (heh) then go check it out! We can be friends. My Nickname is: HilyBee

I'm still learning the ropes for all three sites. Anyone want a How To for one, two, or all three of these new sites? Leave a comment and let me know!

Happy New Site Day!!

I will have to keep this in mind for my mother. She is getting a Fire for Christmas. :)

It's really easy to use. The site(s) make book recommendations based on what you have read or want to read. Love it!
