If they say it enough times, it'll HAVE to be true!

Amazon has been sending me an average of TWO SPAM E-MAILS PER DAY since Thanksgiving telling me that The Amazon Kindle is The #1 Hottest Christmas Gift this Holiday Season (or the #1 Wished For Gift, or the #q1 Gift on Everybody's List, or etc, etc).

I've seen The Kindle... it's kinda nifty. But at that price, wouldn't a Netbook be more efficient?

TECHNOLOGY! And The FUture! It's all on them INTERNETS!

Looking for information on a local Tree-Lighting event (I won't bother to humiliate them by posting a name or exact details), and I come to their website:

So do you figure that their web developer gets paid by the page instead of by the hour? Maybe? And a bonus for creating downloadable content such as PDF?
