lighting a fire with Kindling
Have you seen the Amazon Kindle? It is a wireless reading device that Amazon.com introduced late last year. Amazon won’t say how many they have sold but it must be a lot? Right?
Amazon publishes hourly rankings of their best-selling books and they maintain a chart of the best-sellers that are being downloaded to their Kindle device. #5 on the list is:
How to Use the Amazon Kindle for Email & Other Cool Tricks: Read and Answer Email Anywhere, Anytime on the Amazing Amazon Kindle (The Complete User’s Guide to the Amazing Amazon Kindle) (Kindle Edition)by Stephen Windwalker.
The “Amazing Amazon Kindle”! Gee whiz, this Stephen Windwalker must be a huge fan of Amazon.com one might suppose? He is also the author of Selling Used Books Online: The Complete Guide to Bookselling at Amazon’s Marketplace and Other Online Sites. Another book about Amazon. Amazing indeed!
He is also the author of The Complete Step-by-Step Guide to Publishing and Marketing Books, Articles and Other Content for the Amazon Kindle (Creating Your Own Success Story with New Technologies) (Kindle Edition) another Kindle only book.
Are we detecting a pattern here? Who is Stephen Windwalker? His books seem to be about Amazon.com. Does he work for them? This inquiring mind wants to know.

Call me Luddite but I prefer reading real books with pages and covers, etc. But then I prefer LPs to CDs, corks to screw tops, I’m old fashioned!
