I'm pretty sure there is not a shopping cart involved. You just click the item and it aggregates your shipments as necessary and automatically selects destination and payment as configured by the user. It's a business process which I thoug

Your opinion of the Kindle vs Nook is not relavant. The fact is that they are different products and the Nook is competing with the iPad. The Nook sells well because it's a cheap iPad, not because it's a color Kindle. Amazon did not shutd

Amazon forced to make an Android pad? Nope. 1. Now Nook is just another Android pad. Amazon has Android app for Kindle. Nook is a Kindle. Good luck to B&N on trying to compete with the rest of the market. They'll probably be buying wha

I agree and I imagine AWS, will meet this expectation, eventually. Keep in mind that the Cloud idea is still relatively new. Just look at the history of Amazon's Serivces[1] and you can see that this is the direction that they are going.

"Lesson 2: Size is No Protection from Outages" At this point it has become clear that EBS failed due to a cascading failure as EBS volumes were mirrored across datacenters. http://joyeur.com/2011/04/22/on-cascading-failures-and-amazo...

This sets a really bad precident for hiring people. I guess this guy couldn't get in on his porfolio/expirence chops alone. He probably doesn't deserve this job and is looking to buy his way into an easy fortune.
