Are You Using Kindle's "Before You Go" Feature Effectively?

The latest generation of Kindles (3rd and newer) have a "Before You Go" feature that can be a huge passive marketing tool for authors. The feature not only suggests additional books by the author and provides links for their immediate purchase, but it also allows readers to share an author's book with their social networks,and provide an immediate 1-5 star rating right from the device.



If you own one of these devices, please help promote your favorite authors and their books by rating their books and sharing them with your social networks using the "Before You Go' Feature.

Tags Deleted From Amazon E-books?



Amazon <TAGS> ... no more?

As I was perusing Amazon this evening looking through writing reference books, I noticed that the tags that were so helpful in helping me search for specific topics have mysteriously vanished. It appears that they are still there for paperback books, however. I wonder if Amazon is simply having some kind of technical difficulty or if e-book tags are gone for good.
