If I upload 50 articles to my kindle, it takes way too long to organise these by assigning them one at a time to the collections. A software tool is needed to solve this. If I had access to the operating system I could do this in a few hours... Ideally I would want to do this using a simple tool on my Laptop or internet. I propose that we hack our way out of this limitation. Also I will recommend that academics do not use the kindle due to the limitations. Regards, Hi,
