I finally got an invite to Google Voice. So far I'm liking it although I haven't really had a chance to put it through its paces. Feel free to leave me a voice mail via the link below:
Also new for me this week was a beta invite to Notable. Again, haven't played around with it much yet but the concept is pretty sweet. I'm hoping to test it out with the new KindeZine site to get some feedback before I go live.
Amazon dropped the price of their Kindle to $299. Still a little pricey for the average Joe but if you're an avid reader or do any kind of traveling I think it's well worth it. I love my original series and find it helps me to read much more often than I did before I got it, although I can't justify upgrading to the newer models until mine stops working. This week I read Eastern Standard Tribe by Cory Doctorow on my kindle and absolutely loved it (high on my recommend list!) I would never have picked this up in a book store and probably never would have read it had it not been for the kindle.
And while I'm on the subject, big shout out to Cory for fighting the good fight by releasing his works under Creative Commons. Some people talk about the future and some people help create it... Cory is in the later group. Thanks.
