Kind of surprising that Bill Gates would go through the trouble of setting up an amazon referal link for his article.

- yeonhoyoon 12y agoMy guess is that the profits from the referral link goes to Gates foundation for charity.

- aakilfernandes 12y agoIts possible he's using some site wide tool to monetize and that added the link automatically. Though the graphics suggest he did it with some forethought. I think its also kind of funny that I stopped reading this article half way through and jumped to the link since I was so curious if it was going to have a tag code. That says a lot about the nature of affiliate marketing. BTW, I don't see anything particularly wrong with it.
