Kindle Amazon For Mac

This week Amazon released the Send To Kindle application for Mac users. It is a free application that lets you send documents from your computer to registered Kindle devices, supported Kindle apps and your Kindle Library.

Tip: if a complex PDF file is difficult to read, consider converting it with the free (Mac and Windows versions) – the simplest and best PDF converter I have found for both e-readers and smartphones. Download Send To Kindle for Mac requires Mac OS X v10.6 (Snow Leopard) or Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion). Download from Amazon.

Conclusion Send To Kindle for Mac emulates the features of the Windows version released in January – it’s a simple way to wirelessly transfer personal documents from your Mac to a Kindle (or app).
