>>Results have been even better at e-commerce giant Amazon.com Inc. Combined revenues for the company's four non-U.S. domains--Britain, France, Germany, and Japan--grew at more than 70% annually in each of the past three quarters, topping $218 million, or 27% of Amazon's total, in the quarter ended June 30. Including non-U.S. purchases made through the company's flagship site, Amazon.com, international sales now constitute 34% of Amazon's revenues. Amazon's French traffic has nearly tripled in the past 12 months, and the company has overtaken French retail giant FNAC, in part through clever programs such as a "boutique" on the Web site featuring comic books, and a committee of mothers who review and recommend 15 children's books each month.<< businessweek.com@@G95J4mcQlKpsxwgA/premium/content/02_34/b3796070.htm
