Bellingham, WA. November 26, 2008 -- KindleBoards.com has emerged as a leading online resource for Kindle, Amazon's wireless reading device. The site provides a discussion forum for Kindle owners and for people who have interest in or questions about Kindle.

Features of the site include Kindle news, user tips, accessory pictures and reviews, answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), book reviews, and discussion about Amazon's downloadable books, blogs, newspapers, and magazines.

Kindle users have embraced the site and participate actively in its discussion forums. In November 2008, KindleBoards attracted over 500,000 page views. The site draws 7,000 unique visitors daily.

"With over 20,000 posts on a wide range of Kindle-related topics, we are thrilled that people have engaged so enthusiastically in the KindleBoards forums," says site owner Harvey Chute. "Our members are a fascinating, diverse, and articulate group, sharing a common passion in books, reading, and Kindle."

A popular KindleBoards feature is the FAQ board. Moderated by Leslie H. Nicoll, co-author of The Amazon Kindle FAQ, the KindleBoards FAQ answers the most common questions posed by Kindle users. Its clear explanations are augmented with helpful graphics and screenshots. "The FAQ is designed to be useful for both new and experienced Kindlers," Nicoll noted. "And beyond the FAQ, we have many active members who go out of their way to help other Kindle owners - by answering questions, offering tips, and sharing their Kindle experiences."

KindleBoards features an advanced search function, enabling visitors to readily locate discussions of interest. Users can include images and videos in their forum posts. An active team of moderators engages in site discussions, and hosts Kindle-related events in the forums.

The KindleBoards "Link-Maker" function facilitates the posting of clickable book covers in user posts. The resulting discussion threads are populated with colorful icons representing the books being discussed. Those icons may be clicked by readers to immediately access and download books in Amazon's Kindle Store.

"Our objective is to be a friendly, competent, and lively gathering place for all things Kindle," Chute said. "We welcome all Kindle enthusiasts - from new and prospective Kindle owners, to others who may have enjoyed their Kindles for a while and are looking to make the most of the experience."

Established in November 2007, KindleBoards (http://www.kindleboards.com) is an independent, free resource for Kindle enthusiasts.
