Anaxagoras does have a point, about the past. You can look at the 10Q and see that web income increased 73% from 20M to 35.1M Q to Q. For comparison, AMZN increased 305%. BUT, AMZN has been engaged in activities that promote topline growth while EGGS has been concentrating on building infrastructure to handle growth and closing old infrastructure. The big question now as EGGS focusses on building topline growth is: "will 73% growth rate increase". I am betting that it will. The growth rate for eyeballs is much higher. They need to convert those eyeballs to sales. I think that combining the web site and making it easier to use will increase conversions, as will offline advertising.
