I really liked this article.

I've been using dropbox in much the same way you use Google docs. I like that added feature that the files are available on my computer and I can easily get them through the drop box site if I need to.

I've also been using my ipad in much the same way as you use your kindle. I've read so many books since I got it.

I could probably increase my online participation. I think this is my 6th comment on HN. I should really fix up my blog too.

Thanks!

Dropbox is another tool I use, mainly for quick file transfers. I used it a lot in school, where I would print out finished assignments (have to hand something in I guess), but then put it on Dropbox as well in case something happened to the hard copy (like I stupidly forgot it at home...).

The iPad is good for reading too, though I imagine my eyes would like the Kindle better. It's really easy to stare at for hours. I want to get an iPad for reading Instapaper stuff and RSS feeds.

What's your blog?

My blog is http://www.turtledome.com/blog/. It's in need of some love and i really need to do something about the landing page of the site.

What's your experience with the Kindle's screen? I'm pretty much sold on it, but have a lot of image-based PDFs that wouldn't convert to the native format.

The screen is really nice. Easy to read, changes pages pretty quick. Most of my experience with it has been kindle purchased books or simple converted PDFs. If you've image based PDFs (I'm assuming ones where each page is basically an image of a page, instead of text), I don't know it would work too well. I tried looking at things where it wouldn't convert them but you either had to look at small text or zoom in weird (or maybe there was no zoom...can't remember exactly).
