Amazon Spotlight -- Amazonia: Five Years at the Epicenter of the Dot.Com Juggernaut 

Amazonia: Five Years at the Epicenter of the Dot.Com Juggernaut

Amazonia: Five Years at the Epicenter of the Dot.Com Juggernaut

by: James Marcus

Amazon Price: $11.96 (as of 12/29/2009)Buy Now

From Publishers Weekly: With Amazon.com firmly established as one of the leaders in e-commerce, it is easy to forget the company's early roots as a struggling online bookstore. Marcus, who was employee 55 and one of Amazon's first editors, provides a captivating, witty account of how the fledgling e-retailer transformed itself from a startup that generated $16 million in sales in 1996 to a behemoth with revenue of $5.3 billion in 2003.

The early days of Amazon, Marcus recounts, were full of a do-it-yourself attitude, with everyone at the company encouraged to try different ways to drive customers to the site. In Marcus's case, it was writing and assigning reviews, the content designed to make people decide what to buy. But although Amazon founder Jeff Bezos began as a firm believer in the power of content, his philosophy gradually changed to what Marcus calls the "culture of metrics," in which everything connected to the site could be measured. And as Amazon added more and more products, the importance of content slipped away.

It's clear Marcus's most satisfying time at Amazon was in the early years, even if that meant picking and packing books during the holiday rush. There is even a bit of nostalgia in his tone, which people in the book industry can especially appreciate: once upon a time there was a company whose employees scrambled to sell books over this new thing called the Internet. Today the company has become a software and retailing machine dedicated to selling as many widgets as efficiently as possible.

Amazon Spotlight on Amazon Kindle -- Latest Generation 6" Wireless Reading Device 

Kindle Wireless Reading Device (6

Kindle Wireless Reading Device (6" Display, U.S. Wireless)

Amazon Price: (as of 12/29/2009)Buy Now

From Amazon.com: Improved Ergonomics. Kindle is as easy to hold and use as a book. We designed it with long-form reading in mind. When reading for long periods of time, people naturally shift positions and often like to read with one hand. Kindle's page-turning buttons are located on both sides, allowing you to read and turn pages comfortably with one hand from any position. The page-turn buttons now flex inward to prevent any accidental page turns when picking up or handling Kindle.

JaguarJulie's favorite gadget is the Amazon Kindle 

Got it and love it!
