Operation is straightforward though not seamless. Clippings will read your Kindle notes page, save the ones you want, then export them to the application of your choice: currently Evernote, OneNote, Dropbox and Google Drive. There are a couple of applications that try to get round this problem, and while I have yet to find the perfect solution, so far the one that I rate most highly is Clipings.io. The same would apply to a teacher who has the course textbooks on their Kindle but would like to quote them or share notes on Moodle for the benefit of their students.

OK, I could read the book on my PC, but that would defeat the point of having an e-reader, or I could go to Amazon in my PC browser and look up my notes there, but it would be nice to have them all in the place I normally keep my notes, not to mention being abe to edit them there. For example, I am currently reading a book about Python on my Kindle, and I’d like to have the useful code snippets on my PC. One of the great features of Kindle is the ability to highlight and annotate text you can even share these notes, but sharing them with anyone outside Goodreads, or even transferring them to your desktop, is cumbersome. We don’t think of it so much as a tool in our work as teachers or technologists because what happens in Kindle stays in Kindle. Those of us who own a Kindle or other e-reader tend to see it as our favourite toy, or more grudgingly, an alternative to 'real' books we use to save shelf space.
