Church of the Customer: Amazon’s phone number invisibility
Wonderful comment here about Amazon only faxing orders to their suppliers but making their own number invisible!Church of the Customer: Amazon’s phone number invisibility: “As the author of a single title, Rums of the Eastern Caribbean, I was one of Amazon’s target suppliers before I could handle book sales on my own site.
I no longer offer my books through Amazon because they refused to email me orders, even if I would confirm them! I had to have a fax number. Since I live on a sailboat in the Caribbean as was shipping books from Puerto Rico where phone service was sketchy at best, email was the best, and sometimes only, option.
Now I see my first edition books on Amazon’s used book sales for about 7 times what I was asking for them.

Ed, with the outdoor temp here in Chicago about 6 degrees, you’re breaking my heart by saying you live on a boat in the Caribbean.

Mind Hacks: The Social Yawn
Interesting article about yawning, particularly on how it starts in humans as early as 10 weeks but it takes until you are three before you start ‘catching’ yawns.
