Forbes Favorite By Eric Schmuckler BARNSTORMERS.COM www.barnesandnoble.com Clicking from Amazon.com to Barnes-andnoble.com is like walking from a Wal-Mart to a good bookstore. B&N is focused much more on books and is somewhat more highbrow (Amazon, unable to make real money on books, tries to be many things to many people). With a nice, clean layout, the site offers deep information on each title and a long list of book-related sundries: contests, New York Times reviews, text books, e-books, cartoons and a link to the New York Review of Books. B&N's music site holds its own with the record departments of any on-line megastores. BEST: Great information on used and out-of-print titles. WORST: Little personalization--and no cup of Starbucks while you shop. rally4roi Source: Forbes.com forbes.com
