Amazon unveiled on September 28 a programme that allows Kindle electronic books to be sampled in a Web browser. "Kindle for the Web" is featured on the online retail giant's website, Amazon.com, and book samples can be embedded on other websites or shared through Facebook and Twitter.
Users can click on a "Read First Chapter Free" button on selected Amazon books and a browser window opens featuring the sample chapter. The book can also be purchased directly from the browser.
"Kindle for the Web is also a great way for bloggers and authors to promote books on their websites by letting visitors read a chapter without leaving their site."
