Much has been made about Apple's recent changes to the iOS terms. At first, everyone was sure that many big players,would be forced to pull their apps, such as Amazon's popular Kindle app. But then Apple relaxed the rules a bit, and simply said that Amazon and others couldn't link to their own stores from their iOS apps. Amazon complied. But at the same time, they were also working on an alternative.While Amazon hasn't said anything about it yet, Kindle Cloud Reader is already live. It's a web-based version of their Kindle eBook reader app. It allows you to read your books from the cloud or to download your books for offline reading thanks to the magic of HTML 5 (or a Chrome browser extension). It looks and works great.
