As far as I can see, the Kindle has no directory (folder) support, so
it is no good for organising any data.

If one could connect it to a PC (using wifi perhaps) and drag/drop a
directory structure onto it, it would have a lot of uses.

As it stands, it is useful only with dedicated apps, or with data
organised as indexed PDFs and not too many of them...



It has folders, they are called "collections". You create, delete, and
access them through the Home page, just as you would pick a book to read.

You can also make AZW files that link to other locations and files and
transfer the AZW file to the Kindle.

The big surprise with the current president is not so much that he is
incompetent, inexperienced and divisive, but the extent to which he is all
of those things, and the extent to which anyone is surprised. It's not like
there weren't enough warning signs on the way in, all of which were
summarily dismissed. - Jules Crittenden
