<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Matchbook goes live! Super proud of Digital Store Platform and the teams we worked with across Digital to bring this to market. I'm buying!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Today, Amazon launched Kindle MatchBook, a new benefit
that gives customers the option to buy--for $2.99, $1.99, $0.99, or
free--the Kindle edition of print books they have purchased new from
Amazon. Over 70,000 books are enrolled in Kindle MatchBook, with more
being added every day. Now customers can visit <a href="http://www.amazon.com/kindlematchbook">www.amazon.com/kindlematchbook</a>
to see all of their print books that are eligible for the Kindle
MatchBook edition. Customers can also see when a book is eligible for
Kindle MatchBook on the book's detail page. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="" id="">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
The program was announced on September 3 with over 10,000 titles. Since
then, thousands of popular books like Heaven is for Real, The
Things They Carried and The Way of Kings have been
added from major publishers such as HarperCollins, Macmillan, Houghton
Mifflin Harcourt, Amazon Publishing, Wiley, Chronicle Books, and Marvel,
as well as thousands of titles from Kindle Direct Publishing authors like
The Walk by Lee Goldberg and Falling Into You by Jasinda
Wilder.

My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/744647935">5 of 5 stars</a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><u>Outstanding</u> book. Almost as good as being in class with Stacey. What I love about Inner Critic Inner Success is the very pragmatic way it covers key topics; the case studies are invaluable examples of real life situations we've all come across before. I found the book to be a great refresher on a number of topics that Stacey has taught me and my team. I'm also recommending the book to friends and colleagues with little formal background in the areas cover by the book as it's a *very* approachable read. Makes my stocking stuffer list very easy for this year's holidays! <u>Congratulations Stacey</u> - an awesome book filled with your personal passion!

Of one thing I am confident; the Space Needle has been photographed significantly more than 8 times. Notwithstanding the ubiquity of it's image across the city (heck I can even buy Space Needle imprinted underwear) I felt drawn to take my shot and awesomize the heck out of it. Behold!</div>

There are plenty of times when I need additional real estate for my laptop: when I'm on a call using OCS and want to have the controls front and center; Amazon Cloud Player etc. Rather than hauling a monitor with me Ive been using the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00767H0GM/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00767H0GM&linkCode=as2&tag=dfprama-20">Air Display app</a>
for the Kindle Fire. It’s $9.99 and works over Wi-Fi ( both devices must be on the same network). You also need to download and app for your Mac or PC from the Air Display website <a href="http://avatron.com/apps/air-display">here</a>.
If you don't have a Fire you can use any Android device, iOS device, Windows computer, or Mac as your
second monitor. <br />

Not been involved in a LAN party for, well, a very, very long time. Now, this is not quite a LAN party in the traditional sense. Evan and two other guys are playing League of Legends. All three showed up with their desktops. monitors, keyboards and mice - no laptops here and definitely no laggy wireless connections. I ran three cables from my HP ProCurve switch (yes - it's still running fine....) and off they went. Seem to be kicking ass last time I checked in.<br />

During the Zappos M&A due diligence I took a tour of the offices in Henderson. Super group of folks there who really rolled out the red carpet. I found this picture from the tour. if you've been there you'll know what this is about. If not, I highly recommend that you take the tour.</div>Colin Bodellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03634776433432848448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249428.post-42771775858700426132012-07-15T13:10:00.001-07:002012-07-15T13:10:05.895-07:00Andromeda.

lamp. It utilizes the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picatinny_rail">picatinny</a> rail system (aka the MIL-STD-1913 rail or "tactical rail") allowing customization of the shade and leg positions.
