About three months ago, I bought a rose-patterned comforter on Amazon as a gift. Every single day since that time, I have been getting advertisements about rose-covered linens, throw pillows, afghans and more — and not just when I’m on Amazon.
I had a nightmare the other night. I was pinned down by shiny white cords. They kept coming out of the ground like weeds, trapping me. When I finally broke free, I could see that the cords had been plugged into outlets. Then the alarm on my iPhone rang.
I love spam filters and the simple freedom of being able to browse my inbox without annoying “Lose belly fat in 2 days!” or “Miracle vitamin!” messages.
Amazon recently surprised everyone by announcing it would launch Amazon WorkMail, a secure, managed business email and calendaring solution, poised to compete with Microsoft Exchange and Gmail.
