I want candy

Content the Kindle could be selling, but isn't:

The Gawker blogs. Gawker, Gizmodo, Jalopnik, Defamer, Jezebel, and Deadspin. Not having the Gawker empire on the Kindle when you've got BoingBoing and TechCrunch seems an obvious omission. I go to Gawker every day, but I don't hit the others as much as I would like to.

More Jane Haddam, Janet Evanovich, and Linda Fairstein. 6,800 mysteries and thrillers isn't enough.

More inspirational titles. Looking at the Kindle categories, there aren't nearly enough books published by gurus. Where's your Wayne Dyer, your Deepak Chopra, your Marianne Wiliamson? Yes, they have some books available, but these folks have deep, deep backlist.

More newspapers and magazines - where's the NY Observer? Where are my tabloids? Where is The New Yorker? Where's People Magazine? Where's Vanity Fair?

Consider all those requests.
