Kindle Book Lending Now Here
 

The following was posted today on Amazon's web site by the Kindle team.

"Today, we're pleased to launch Kindle Book Lending, a new feature that lets you loan Kindle books to anyone you choose. The borrower does not need to own a Kindle. Kindle books can be read on Kindle or using our free Kindle reading applications for PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone, BlackBerry, and Android devices. Each eligible book can be lent once for a period of 14 days. Not all e-books are lendable - the publisher or rights holder determines which titles are enabled for lending. For more information on how to loan Kindle books, please visit www.amazon.com/kindle-lending."

There is already a 1900 group membership site on Facebook to facilitate just this.

That's great news! Thanks for the info. My big concern with e-readers was that I couldn't share a good book with a friend. :read:
