What Exactly Is The Amazon Kindle?
You may have heard of the term but you’re likely still wondering - What exactly is the Amazon Kindle? What does the Amazon Kindle
do?
Let me try and answer those questions for you.
The Amazon Kindle is essentially a wireless reading device. I like to think of mine as a portable library or a limitless book, although it’s not just books you can read with the Amazon Kindle
, every single one comes with access to over 100,000 books, newspapers, magazines and even blogs.
That’s right, even blogs.
You might wonder what the difference is between reading a newspaper article online and reading one on the Amazon Kindle. Well the biggest difference is that the electronic-paper display actually makes you feel like you’re reading from a real piece of paper. It’s stunningly sharp and the hi-resolution image is immaculate.
Once you actually get your hands on a Kindle, you will be able to purchase and begin reading books in a second. And this is a major advantage. Have you ever sat at home in need of a good book but not keen to head out to the store to buy one? Often, by the time you get back, there’s no time to actually read the book left! But the Amazon Kindle
takes away that problem. There’s no more looking for a good book to take on holiday or a magazine for that long flight – all you need is your Kindle
and you can have several New York Times best sellers in your hands whenever you need them!
The Kindle itself can hold over 200 titles as well, so if you get bored of one book, you can always switch to another other… without getting up!
When we think of books, we tend to think of weight. Books are heavy and cumbersome to carry around. But not the Kindle! It is lighter and thinner then most paperbacks and an absolute joy to carry with you!
There’s no monthly bills or service plans and you don’t have to tie yourself into a lengthy contract either. It works on the same high-speed data network (EVDO) as advanced cell phones—so you never have to locate a hotspot, like you do with WiFi. And to top it all off, the Amazon Kindle also gives you access to Wikipedia. It’s almost like having an entire encyclopaedia Britannia in your bag!
I love my Amazon Kindle and I can’t recommend it enough! I hope this article has helped you to understand it a little better.

Her Royal Highness - The Queen
Around the world, wherever you go, people always seem to know about the Queen. Or Queen Elizabeth II
that is. She is surely the most famous person on earth.
Yesterday the Queen arrived in Northern Ireland for a three day visit. She attended a reception at Hillsborough Castle, her first engagement at the historic landmark. The Queen met with 300 or so territorial army members to mark the the organisations centenary.
Queen Elizabeth will spend the next couple of days at several other royal engagements including the handing out of Maundy Thursday alms purses to people in Armagh, part of an ancient ceremony held each Easter.
The number of purses the queen will hand out signifies how many years she has spent as the monarch - 82. Therefore 82 men and 82 women will be given a traditional Maundy purse.
This is just one of the many duties The Queen will carry out this year. Such is the life of a Monarch!
