Amazon.com Puts $60 Million into Kozmo

from the more-money dept

Not a big surprise here, but Amazon.com has invested $60 million into Kozmo. I wonder how many days that takes off the lifespan of Amazon.com (see last posted article).

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Re Same Day Delivery

    I'm suprised that B&N hasn't patented the same day delivery mechanism on their website. The better file soon, or else Amazon will patent it too!

    Amazon vs B&N

    Both.....are OK. I mean, hey....cheap books for the most part, I shop around, outpost.com rocks. The boycott on Amazon....is crap I think. Use what works. I like B&N because of the Coffee...but then again, go to their web page and get Java [snort].
    Another Mr.White posting for the criminally sane.
