The problem with replacing books is that I would lose my older highlights.
If I create a new book for everything, it would become messy _really_ quickly.
So if it's possible to append pages to a book, I can also create a book per category and append pages as I save articles.
- longnguyen 4y agoAh I gotcha. I'm building a product[0] for non-jailbroken Kindles and would love to solve new problems. In your case, if I can backup your highlights (and notes) to somewhere else, does that solve your problem? You can choose your storage service (dropbox, notion, s3 etc.) [0]: https://ktool.io https://ktool.io
- ctxc 4y agoYeah that would be nice, could try it out. But I'm fickle - before putting that effort in, ask more of your users! Also, a table of contents with all the articles in the book would be nifty. Maybe you can send me an email once you do it, I can try it out (I'll use the chat on the website to send my email). Also, just a heads-up: the 50$ seems like a but too much. For context, I bought my Kindle itself for ~40$ (India) I didn't try out the preview thing the first time since setting up the email is too much of a hassle (didn't know it would dynamically preview). But I typed in an article url anyway to see what would happen anyway, and I LOVE the kindle preview. I think it's brilliant! All the best!
- sofixa 4y agoLooks pretty awesome, kudos! If i may offer some feedback, demo screens from the app/website, and some example sources outside of Twitter ( e.g. i wanted to know if it's capable of reading RSS feeds) might be useful additions to your site. I wish i knew about it before buying an Onyx Boox Nova Air to replace my Kindle for that particular use case ( news reading, mostly through my RSS reader which is web-based).
- longnguyen 4y agoThanks for your valuable feedback. Yeah you’re right, my landing page is not very good at the moment. I’m in the process of improving it :-)
