Line Items: AmazonFail
April 13th, 2009 by Kelson. Posted in Computers/Internet and tagged for amazon, AmazonFail, SorryAmazon, Tweets, Twitter- I KNEW there was something familiar about #amazonfail. Here’s an interesting theory about the “glitch” On Amazon Failure, Meta-Trolls, and Bantown #
- #amazonfail = 2 issues: 1. Hiding “adult” books. 2. Misclassifying LGBT books as adult. It’s *possible* #2 isn’t policy but #1 is. #
- Yet another explanation for #amazonfail Amazon Rep: This was not a “glitch” Would be nice if Amazon would make an official statement w/ a bit more detail. #
- A theory attributing #amazonfail to bureaucratic incompetence Amazon’s Very Bad Day #
- Amazon speaks: #amazonfail is “an embarrassing and ham-fisted cataloging error” affecting multiple categories #
I’ve posted some more detailed thoughts on the matter.
