Kindle has recently released update 2.5.4 which gives users social media enhancements. Facebook and Twitter capabilities are available now. Although not easily found and extra steps are necessary to access it is still a cool feature to have.

Taking tweets one step further with the Kindle you can highlight passages or quotes from the current book you are reading and tweet that to your followers. You are able to tweet a passage of any size due to Twitter taking the information and creates a link to the passage and subsequent Amazon page which in turn features the book cover image and title for you. Along next to Twitter there is also the Facebook sharing option.
