Amazon today began promoting a new gift idea that should appeal to the literate (as well as to procrastinators looking for a last-minute alternative to the ever-popular “back-rub coupon”)–Kindle e-books can now be given to anyone with an e-mail address. And you don’t have to worry about whether the recipient owns a Kindle device per se, because a bunch of free reader apps make a Kindle out of pretty much anything with a screen.
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
