The world of e-publishing and social media just got a tiny bit more connected.
KDP Amazon (Kindle Direct Publishing) now has a Facebook page. Actually its been there for 4 weeks, but they just informed me the BIG news yesterday. (Dogs and cats have Facebook pages, so it's a tad surprising it took KDP Amazon until July 2011 but still a good thing.) From their newsletter:
Recently, Kindle Direct Publishing launched a Facebook page to help independent authors and publishers become more successful with helpful tips and news about KDP. Help us get the conversation started on the right foot and spread the word to your friends by commenting on the Wall of clicking "Like" on the page. http://www.facebook.com/KindleDirectPublishing
What you can do if you're an Indie author trying to sell ebooks, is regularly visit this KDP Amazon Facebook page and participate on their wall. This is the link for the most recent comments – http://www.facebook.com/KindleDirectPublishing?sk=wall&filter=1. Share comments, leave links, talk about your books, crack jokes, make friends and have fun with it. Many people already spend an hour per day at the site. Might as well make it business time.
