Kindle documents

I learned something useful at work today.  I'll warn you now, it's not very interesting-- I'm sure half of you already knew it, and the other half didn't care.  But I didn't know it, and it was in fact relevant to my earning of tasty tasty salaries.

In order to put a non-Amazon-ordered document onto a Kindle (keyboard version, we're still messing with Fire.  Um.  You know what I mean.), all you have to do is plug it via the handy USB cord into a computer, and it shows up just like any other removable drive.  Copy the document into the "documents" folder, and you're done.  This is apparently sometimes called "sideloading," after "up-" and "down-."
