🌴262. Am I Breaking Up With Kindle?
So here’s the question I’m now wrestling with: Am I about to break up with Kindle?
On today’s walk (weighted vest and all), I stumbled into an audio summit via Hello Audio and ended up learning something completely unexpected from Vanessa Poin. She shared how she uses Substack for discoverability (hello, generative engine optimization) and then dropped a perspective that stopped me in my tracks: PDFs are way more valuable than Kindle books when it comes to embedding knowledge into your business.
Why? Because with a PDF you can upload it straight into ChatGPT (or Claude, or Perplexity), and suddenly that book isn’t just something you read once and forget—it becomes an AI-powered tool you can apply directly to your context.
In this episode, I unpack what that means for how we learn, why I’m re-thinking how I buy non-fiction, and whether Kindle has just been out-hacked.
