Moments ago, Amazon updated its Kindle iOS application, making a variety of changes. First, Amazon removed the Kindle Store from the app, falling in-line with Apple's in-app policy (which the company appears to be enforcing now).

And third, users of the application can now share quotations from texts with friends, via Facebook and Twitter.
Apple’s new subscription rules are beginning to have an effect on iPad owners who use the iDevice to read books.

The free Google Books app is no longer available in the App Store. This news, which was first uncovered by 9 To 5 Mac, could suggest Apple is beginning to pull apps that violate the company’s new in-app purchase terms of service. Or perhaps Google pulled the app itself.
