Quick Kindle Tip: A Kindle Clippings File converter


A tool to convert your Kindle Clippings file into Word, Excel or PDF files

I ran across the free tool described below while reading a comments area a couple of days ago.

ClippingsConverter tool at clippingsconverter.com.

  The site's conversion tool has been described in the useful and well-regarded makeuseof site.

This would be only for those who don't mind uploading a clippings file to an unknown website owner for conversion but is probably not a great idea for someone who may not want their personal highlighting and notes in someone else's temporary care even if the file is submitted for automated conversion.

  I've not tried it, but I like the makeuseof site and if you haven't tried yet that really informative site with a focus on how to do things, I think you'll enjoy it.

  Otherwise, I like the convenience of Amazon's annotations webpage for Kindle owners.  But the ClippingsConverter tool does the added step of putting the annotations into a separate file, in a popular format.  If you do try it and either like it or not, please let us know.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.

Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.

Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.

Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.

Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).

IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.

TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
