Bright Side of News reports Amazon has introduced Shelfari social networking for the Android Kindle application.
The upgrade came Thursday, making it possible to view book details from Shelfari on smartphones running the Google operating system. Screen orientation-lock and full text search comes with the new release. New features allow Android phone users to add notes and highlight books to sync with Kindle apps on the e-reader or an Apple iPad.

Shelfari lets you create a virtual book shelf where friends can see what you are reading, and you can review and discuss them. A Shelfari widget is possible which works on most blogs and social networks including Blogger, LiveJournal, MySpace, Typepad, Xanga, Vox, Wordpress, and Facebook.
