Yesterday I wanted to share a sentence of text from an ebook with two friends on Google Hangouts. I clicked the 'share' button in Nook Reader and chose 'Hangouts' as the destination. It pasted a URL pointing to a barnes and noble site with some ID appended. This is not what I want to happen.

I ended up screenshotting the page, cropping it, and pasting the image onto chat. It might have been easier to type the whole thing out (though I'm not great at typing on mobile).

This annoyance alone has spurred me to look again at keeping my own catalog of DRM-free files in Calibre and using a reader that doesn't do this sort of thing.

Any advice on 'flow' to make this sort of approach easy is welcome (apart from the DRM bit, that's off-topic).
