WIll Oprah Double Kindle Sales?


Apparently the diva of spirit lurves the Kindle tremendously, and Amazon has responded to that love by offering those who type in the OPRAHWINFREY coupon code a $50 discount! This according to a Financial Times article that postulates that this could be the American Idol moment for e-readers.

American Idol moment, you ask? What I mean is to draw a connection between this and how SMS voting fueled the mainstreaming of texting in the US.

An endorsement by the Big O has made millionaires of more than a few entrants in the book world. So there ya go!

"Rock on, Oprah!" Or should that be, "Read On!"

Thanks for reading, and don't forget to write.
