Going Green with Kindle Reader!

Posted by: Peter Murphy on Jan 05 2008

image Have you ever looked at the amount of mail you still get and gone, that’s a tree! As many readers here, I quite often think I have embraced mobile, nay digital technology, Yet the amount of paper mail I get every week is enormous. I have moved away from these notifications, as much as I can buy transferring most of these to E bills, but what about what you read. I know we are not going to prize everyone away from their newspapers, but in a great post today, CTitanic

Open Letter to Magazines

Kindle has been in the market for a little more than a month and the list of Magazines that has joined the subscription list at Amazon though small it’s growing. Today I received my monthly subscription to Consumer Reports and that reminded me that the bookshelf where I keep all issues of this magazine together with other magazines like National Geographic, Smart Phone and Pocket PC Magazine and PC Magazine, it’s full. I could recycle them but I collect them. And it’s not just that I collect them it’s that sometimes I use them as material when I’m doing some research. So, looking at my magazine bookshelf I decided to send the Editors of these magazines this letter:

I’d really like to see people work towards goals like this, and save our earth/lives! Ironically the image of the Kindle is on a magazine cover! Oops

    You can do your bit while reading books also. Your cell phone makes a fine eReader - that means no extra device manufactured and no books printed or pulped (did you know half of all books printed are pulped?). I get free books from http://www.booksinmyphone.com having a few books with me everywhere is a real boon. You can install direct to the phone from the mobile version of their site.
