Your book has an update available

Today I received my first ever update for a book.  It felt rather good actually - pressing update to get a new and improved version of a book I purchased several months ago.  The experience was a lot more pleasant than my first update for the software for my TV.  The minutes that it spent with "Do not power of..." message felt like a lifetime.

This feature of electronic books is definitely second on the list of my favorite benefits of online books after availability.  The list of my non-favorites is a topic for a separate post (starts with DRM).

For the curious the book was Tactics Time! 1001 Chess Tactics from the Games of Everyday Chess Players on my Amazon Kindle - highly recommended if you love Chess Puzzles.
