Oftentimes you see an article, news item, blog, how-to or DIY guide, food or drink recipe, or a web page that you’d like to save to your Kindle. You can do it, and it’s easy, because Amazon offers a browser extension that’s free to install. It’s called Send to Kindle and works with Kindle gadgets as well as the Kindle app. There are browser extensions for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, too, which you can download if you use those browsers.
You’ll see a Kindle icon in your address bar, which you can then click on to preview web pages or send them to your Kindle device. If you don’t want to send the entire web page and all its content, just select the part you want and send that. When you are on a website, check to see if it has a Kindle button. If so, clicking on it will enable you to send articles or other web page content to your Kindle or your Kindle app. In that case, you don’t even need to have the Send to Kindle browser extension.
No matter how you send to your Kindle, the Send to Kindle software will automatically format it so that it is shown on your e-reader in the proper Kindle format. There are Send to Kindle versions for Mac and PC, Android and email, and if you have a website or a blog there are also versions you can install on those sites.
