[Athen] AHG Presentation - Kindle

[Kelmer, Susan M.]

I will see about getting my presentation up post-conference.  I will have materials to give out, as well, just as I did last year, and will have those to email to anyone who wants them.  Thanks for the questions, this is exactly what I’m looking for!

Susan:

A couple of thoughts:

-Omnipage 17 is claiming to make "Kindle-ready" files... how is this different from just using the Kindle's native PDF capability? Does it then allow for annotating?

-Maybe a suggested alt text workflow, if we had a Kindle-using student?

Due to budget cuts, I'm not going to be able to make it to AHG this year. <sad face> Have you thought about putting your presentation on the web somewhere (maybe drop.io <http://drop.io/> , scribd <http://www.scribd.com> , or even Google docs) so the rest of us can benefit from your knowledge? (My Kindle DX comes in next week and I'm already salivating...)

Enjoy!

Shawn

I have been accepted as a presenter at AHG again this year, and I am going to be talking about the Kindle DX.  I have one, have been playing with it and having fun. What I need from you all is a few questions you would like answered about the Kindle, so I can build my presentation.  I know what I want to know, but I’m sure there are things others want to know that I haven’t thought of.  So, if you can provide me with a question or two you’d like answered, I’d appreciate it.  You can post to the list or to me privately.
