One of my new favorite services: http://readwise.io
Syncs with your Kindle account and sends you a daily email with some of your highlights.

A new reason for me to stick to ebooks, despite still preferring the sensory experience of paper books
-
Confession: I smell every book before starting it. Not that the information is of any subsequent use.
-
It’s being able to read while it’s dark that truly sets me over the edge
-
Me it's the thinness, especially helpful when you got RSI. I wish the screen was larger though, that's the biggest downside.
-
And having access to your highlights from anywhere is a game changer, esp when you read non-fiction and could need to access those insights on a moment's notice
-
Ya that’s everything. Do you use any read later/Pocket/Instapaper -> Kindle services?
-
Nah, I tried, but that pollutes my Kindle too much, and my reading is more active on Instapaper than on books, I prefer doing it from a laptop
-
I use clippings.io though

glad you guys like it! definitely feel free to dm/reply/email me(tristan@readwise.io) any thoughts on how to make Readwise more useful for you :)

An integration with
@getliner would be amazing -
Sweet, I've bumped that up our list. Looking briefly, it seems that you can export all of your liner highlights to a text file, which should work, but you have to select all of the highlights individually...
