Savory: Native Kindle epub and PDF Converter

callmeed · on April 7, 2009

As a Kindle2 owner I still don't see too much use for this ... I haven't run into any scenarios where I couldn't quickly print to PDF and email to my Kindle. Then again, I don't own any legacy ebook content.

On a related note, here's a startup idea I had:

  - Let people create accounts online and add their favorite blogs/RSS feeds (or import OPML file)
  - Once a week, create a single PDF file of all the new posts from said blog list (with nice formatting and TOC)
  - Email the PDF to the user's Kindle
  - Kindle owners have an instant subscription to a personalized magazine and save $ because they only get hit with a single $0.10 charge
