EditTips

  • A bookmark on a Kindle 2 will appear as a dogeared corner (like a book's dogeared corner).
  • Bookmarking pages isn't effective as keeping track of what location you've read to (as opposed to bookmarking in a paper-book).
  • A list of the bookmarks along with all your notes and highlights can be found under the "Menu" button's area called "View Notes & Marks".
  • Even if you change the text-size of the reading inside a Kindle book, the bookmark will still be shown in it's proper place.

EditWarnings

  • With the plethora of synchronization options your Kindle contains, bookmarking pages isn't always the best way to keep track of the furthest page you've read to. Bookmarking is the most-time consuming thing, however to keep track of. So don't use bookmarks in the same way you would a paperback book's bookmark.
  • Never call a location where a bookmark is placed by it's manual book's page number. If you were to go to a page number where the bookmark has been placed, if the bookmark is placed later on the page, the bookmark won't be shown until you go to the later location.
