while in Home or with open content, you have the option to search for that item in all
of your books, newspapers, blogs, personal documents, and annotations. You also
have the option to focus your search to the built-in dictionary, the Kindle Store,
Wikipedia, Google, and the Web.
Collections
To personalize and organize items, you can add your books, personal documents, and
audiobooks to collections on your Home screen. Create a new collection from the
Home screen by pressing the Menu button and selecting "Create New Collection", and
then type a name for the collection. You can add as many items as you wish to each
collection, and you can even add an item to more than one collection for more flexible
organization.
Clip Your Favorite Passages
While reading a book or a newspaper, have you ever wanted to clip and save a few
words to refer to later? With Kindle, simply select "Add a Note or Highlight" from the
menu and use the 5-way to highlight the content you want to clip and then press the
5-way to save your selection. The clipping is added to a file in Home called "My
Clippings." You can review your clippings later, search for words or terms you clipped,
and transfer the "My Clippings" file to your computer. This is a great way to capture
your favorite quotations to share with others.
Bookmark Your Reading
Kindle automatically saves your place in whatever book you are reading, but you can
also add a bookmark to any page in a book or PDF document by pressing the Menu
button and selecting "Add a Bookmark." You can see that the upper right corner of the
page is dog-eared. Kindle stores all your bookmarks for the current content in your
annotations. You can view them at any time by pressing the Menu button from the book
you're reading and selecting "View My Notes & Marks."
