3.1 Hacks #27-48
Imagine walking into your favorite physical bookstore to browse the
aisles. Imagine that you're encouraged to leave
notes on any book, CD, or DVD letting others know how you feel about
it—good or bad. Imagine being able to peer into other people's
shopping bags when they have items similar to yours. Or imagine
looking at the store's business records to see which books are most
popular with people from your area. Amazon provides features that
make all of this possible. Browsing the virtual aisles of Amazon is a
unique experience because there are opportunities at every turn to
connect with other Amazon visitors.
The hacks in this chapter focus on how you can use the community
features effectively, integrate them with a remote web site, or
combine them in different ways to get a different view of the
information.
