Amazon.com investing in bloggers
Wednesday February 9th, 2005
Coming shortly after the Ask.com purchase of BlogLines, Amazon.com is investing in 43 Things. 43 Things allows people to write about their goals and accomplishments and links them to others with similar interests.
Apparently, many e-commerce experts feel that blogs will drive future web sales as people recommend purchases to their viewers.
Amazon.com recently started the search engine A9.com, spreading their internet interests into more than simply e-commerce.
