How to leverage Kindle?

You can use Kindle for more than ebook reading. You can read Wikipedia pages, Quora question and answers, articles and webpages in Kindle.

1. Send to Kindle extension: Install amazon's Send to Kindle extension in chrome browser. While your browsing any page of the web, you can click on the send to kindle extension in the right corner of the browser to send that particular article/page to your Kindle. Whatever you sent using send to kindle extension will be saved in amazon cloud and it will be downloaded to your device when you connect to wifi.
Send to Kindle desktop application can be used to send files from computer to Kindle. You can just drag and drop the files to Kindle documents folder.

2. Push to Kindle Website: If you don't want to install extension or if you are using any other browser, you can use http://fivefilters.org/kindle-it/ website to send any webpage to your kindle. You have to enter the complete url of the website which you want to send to you Kindle.


Watch on video on how to use push to kindle.
Converting ebooks to Kindle format: I haven't able to find working converter for converting pdf to .mobi format. So I am converting PDF to epub then epub to mobi. To convert PDF to epub, upload your pdf file to http://www.pdfpocket.com/ then upload converted epub file to http://www.sendepubtokindle.com/.

Note: You will get your kindle email address in your kindle device and in your amazon website. Add your email address free list in amazon's "Manage content and devices".
