One of the niftiest things about the NOOK Tablet—and what sets it apart from reading a paper book—are the extras it gives you: notes, text highlighting, and the ability to select text and then do something with it—look up a word in a dictionary, say, or share it with others via email or social networking sites like Facebook.

It all starts with selecting text. Press and hold your finger on a word. As you hold your finger on it, the word gets highlighted and appears magnified inside a balloon so you can more easily read it. When you release your finger, two vertical bars appear at each end of the word, and the Text Selection toolbar pops up as well.

When you select Twitter, a window pops up letting you post it to your Twitter account. Keep in mind that Twitter only lets you post messages of characters or less, so your quote and any comment have to be shorter than that.
