Amazon just launched the Send to Kindle button, which clips Web content and saves it to Kindle readers and apps, for Web developers and WordPress bloggers. The button is also now available on The Washington Post, TIME, and Boing Boing. The Send to Kindle suite, which Amazon launched last year with its Send to Kindle button for Google Chrome, is being positioned as an alternative to content-clipping services like Pocket and Instapaper, making it easier for users to read content besides e-books on their devices: “The Send to Kindle Button lets you easily send that content to your Kindle to read later, at your convenience. Just send once and read everywhere on any of your Kindle devices or free Kindle reading apps for iPhone, iPad and Android phones or tablets. No more hunting around for that website or blog that caught your eye — just open your Kindle and all the content you sent is right there.”
