How Amazon Made My Life Easier (In Progress)

Have you thought of a gift that you know you couldn't physically be at the location to buy it, whether it's for you or your significant other? Let's say you live in a little town of Antarctica, Fed-Ex comes twice a week - three times if you're lucky - and you want that new iPad, what do you do? Take a flight to half way cross the globe to an apple store? This is the problem I want to remind the younger generation that our mothers, fathers, grandmama and grandpapa had to face and how we relied so heavily on Amazon's continuous efforts to make things more accessible for everyone and anyone. I will tackle the before Amazon days, who came up with the idea and what motivated them-what made them say aha?. Then once we cleared that up we'll go a bit more in depth about the failures Amazon had to overcome to get to it's prestige of 2012. I plan to take not the approach of an Amazon fanboy that promotes Amazon in a light of everything went great with this company but an objective view of analyzing all information used from scholarly resources and highly reputable sites. So check it out, coming soon to an Internet connected device near you!!

  1. I love your post ! So true, amazon does make things a lot easier. People don't appreciate it as much anymore because they always have it in front of them , just a click away. I think it would be interesting to see the before and after amazon and see how it got to where it is now.

  2. I agree Amazon is great and provide us with one of the best online services out there. They stay on top of competitors by listening to their customers and constantly changing how they work for the better.
