Highly Effective People<\/em><\/a> by Stephen Covey<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Just this past week, Amazon has implemented a rudimentary lending system for those with Kindles. If the publisher of a book allows, you can lend a Kindle book one time to someone else. They can have the book for no longer than 14 days, and while they have it, you cannot read your copy. It&#8217;s not a perfect lending solution, but it&#8217;s better than nothing.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve noticed that Goodreads has already started a <a href=\"http:\/\/wwww.goodreads.com\/group\/show\/40792.Kindle_Lending\">Kindle Lending group<\/a> for people who want to exchange books. If you&#8217;re not a Goodreads member, I highly recommend it as a place to share with other readers. It&#8217;s free, and integrates easily with Facebook and Twitter.
