Good job Amazon for this new design roll-out that highlights their key free offerings and their deals. Definitely
- considers the user
- leverages interest in free content
- shows Amazon’s positive offerings.
- Additionally, it’s also not at all intrusive – disappearing the moment someone starts typing.

Shifts in Facebook: Commenting on Wall Posts

Facebook Shifting Borders?
The other day my friend Ian and I were having a facebook wall conversation and it wasn’t until he commented on my message on his wall that I realized you could comment on that as well (hey…there’s some things I don’t pay attention to
).
As my friend Bobby just did the same thing earlier (commenting on my wall post), I write this post being all kinds of divided. Is this the end of the wall-to-wall? It makes sense because then the conversation follows on your profile where it began and you can see the exchange of things. But then, I feel that you miss that element of two people on different profiles talking to each other.
Efficient: Facebook – Events and Lightboxes
Written on April 9, 2009 at 7:13 am, by cct
I kind of hesitated writing “efficient” and “facebook” next to each other, but there are a few changes to facebook I have liked (and I’m kind tired of being a ‘negative nancy’ – where does that phrase come from? all the nancy’s i know aren’t negative – ’cause I’m generally pretty chipper). The thing that striked me recently that I liked was when I created an event listing.
Well…
When I finished creating an event. The process of creating the event itself is quite annoying. As I do work for an event-related website, I’m a big fan of “add event/create your event” buttons and links. But wait this was supposed to be positive…
