Kindle for PC was released a few days back and many of you might have already installed it on your Windows PC. Now, if you are wondering what to do next, here is a simple guide on how to download, install and start reading eBooks on Kindle for PC. Ofcourse, you can pay for the books and download them directly via Kindle for PC, but we love freebies, don't we?
As mentioned in the previous post, in case you don't have an account with Amazon, you would need to register for a new account, where you will be asked to share your eMail ID and credit card details. You don't need to pay or use the credit card, but it is required.
Once you register, you will see "Shop in Kindle Store" button on top right corner.
Click on that button which will take you to the Kindle eBook store on Amazon. From here you can buy or download free books. The ones on the home page are their best sellers and obviously they cost money! So how to find...
We had previously seen promotional offer for Ashampoo Music Studio 2009, Ashampoo Firewall 1.2, Ashampoo Burning Studio and Ashampoo Uninstaller 3. Today its the turn of Ashampoo WinOptimizer 2010, which normally costs $49.99 and now available for Free!
The latest v6.50 is lightning fast and amazingly light on the system resources. Ashampoo WinOptimizer 2010 includes Defrag 3 Disk Defragmenter, AntiSpy Module, Context Menu Manager and Favorites tab in addition to all the cool features it had in its previous version.
Ashampoo WinOptimizer 2010 works on Windows XP, Vista & Windows 7. The One-click Optimizer does what it says and you can even schedule it to run automatically so that you don’t need to think about it at all. It keeps your Windows computer running as fast and smoothly as on the first day you bought it. In addition to efficient Windows maintenance you also get a whole suite of powerful, easy-to-use tools that enable you to configure and tune your Windows computer so that it works exactly the way you want it to.
Update (2.12.2011): Due to a request by Microsoft, all the links have been redacted.
Few days back we had told you about an option to get the Windows 7 DVD from retail stores or download Windows 7 ISO directly from its servers online. Customers can digitally download the Windows 7 installation files from online store from which they purchased Windows 7 to clean install on blank PC or upgrade existing installed OS.
The previous Windows 7 download links were in ".box" format, which comprised of a starter executable, setup1.box and setup2.box which cannot be burned to DVD disc directly or mount to a virtual DVD-ROM drive. The process to create a bootable Windows 7 DVD ISO image was pretty complex and most of you found it tough to get started.
Luckily, MDL (update: link redacted) has got hold of complete listing of Windows 7 ISO direct download links. Note that the Windows 7 ISO image is of RTM build 6.1.7600.16385.
Note: The below links are from Digital River, who is the official e-Commerce partner of Microsoft.
Amazon just released a free e-book reader application for Windows PCs. The Kindle for PC application allows Amazon customers to read Kindle books on their Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 machines. A Mac version will follow soon. Besides being capable of working with Amazon's proprietary e-book format, the app can also display e-books in the .mobi file format.
Though it's designed to supplement an actual Kindle device, no Kindle is required if you want to simply use the software and buy from Amazon's Kindle store. After downloading the app from Amazon's website, you'll have to log in with your Amazon account in order to start using the software. You don't have to create a special Kindle account to do this—any Amazon account will do.
