- InclinedPlane 16y agoInteresting data, but the interactive graph adds absolutely nothing.
- barmstrong 16y agoDisagree - I actually thought that was really useful to capture a big picture view of the data.
- barmstrong 16y agoWow - had no idea Amazon owned all those companies. Bezos has made some really solid bets over the years when compared to his counterparts at those other companies.
- netmau5 16y agoIt was interesting to see MS buy up several location-based companies in the early 2000s. They always seem to be so ahead of the curve on concept, just not on execution.
- zandorg 16y agoWhere's Amazon's Bibliofind acquisition?
- krohrbaugh 16y agoInteresting data. My understanding re: Engine Yard is that Amazon only _invested_ in them (starting with a $15M Series B) and that they aren't a majority owner. Am I mistaken on that?
