Meanwhile, the Shop the Web product "has been discontinued" at Amazon, according to a source with knowledge of the situation, although the Web page remains. "The supporting staff has been re-assigned to other projects within the company," the source said.

This is difficult for me to believe. I attended the Amazon.com shareholders meeting held here in Seattle a couple months ago.

In the Q&A, Jeff Bezos answered a question from a shareholder about Shop the Web. My recollection is that Jeff Bezos made very encouraging remarks about Shop the Web... gave me the impression (and I believe many others at the meeting) that Shop the Web would be BIG... it's what I reported back to Go2Net.
