3.6 Sharing Notes and Highlights with Your Social Network
You can link your Kindle to your social network accounts so that you can share your
notes and highlights with others in your social network. Sharing your notes and
highlights is a great way to tell others about the books and periodicals you're reading.
While the examples in this section refer to Twitter, this feature works similarly for
other social networks.
