Amazon to Launch ???Kindle Singles???

This does sound like a great idea. Competition is really bringing out some great products lately!

Amazon to Launch “Kindle Singles”

via Marco.org on 10/12/10

Amazon to Launch “Kindle Singles”:

(via infoneer-pulse)

Less than 10,000 words or more than 50,000: that is the choice writers have generally faced for more than a century—works either had to be short enough for a magazine article or long enough to deliver the “heft” required for book marketing and distribution. But in many cases, 10,000 to 30,000 words (roughly 30 to 90 pages) might be the perfect, natural length to lay out a single killer idea, well researched, well argued and well illustrated—whether it’s a business lesson, a political point of view, a scientific argument, or a beautifully crafted essay on a current event.

Today, Amazon is announcing that it will launch “Kindle Singles”—Kindle books that are twice the length of a New Yorker feature or as much as a few chapters of a typical book. Kindle Singles will have their own section in the Kindle Store and be priced much less than a typical book.

This is a great idea.

We have been spending a lot of time following the path of the old

Those pioneers were a tough crowd.
