Project Ruby: Amazon Does Clothing
Thursday, Oct 31, 2002
Just got an email from Jeff Bezos (err, from Amazon, anyhow) asking me to test their new clothing metastore, spanning offerings from the Gap, Old Navy, Nordstrom, Lands' End, Target, Eddie Bauer, Foot Locker, 'and many more.'

I get a $30 gift certificate if I spend $50 or more, and it's likely not so much a test as a buzz campaign. It looks like anyone gets the $30 gift certificate. You don't have to be sent the letter (though I bet millions got the letter all the same).

I'm shopping for a winter jacket anyhow, so perhaps I'll check it out. You can too.

If you like it, please share it.
