I don’t know about you but I certainly couldn’t get almost anything I needed, living in bum fuck nowhere, the same day I ordered it in 2001.
If we define online commerce as its 2019 current incarnation, I’d argue that in 2001 it wasn’t a thing.
- chx 8y agoSame day is still rare, I'd argue. Walmart started online sales in 2000. Newegg came to be in 2001. Zappos existed since 1999. Amazon 1-click was also patented in 1999. Yes, you didn't have Shopify spawning an uncountable number of small stores, you didn't have Amazon Fresh or Instacart.
- ulfw 8y agoTo this day there still aren't Apple stores in "bum fuck nowhere". So not sure where you're going with the argument.
