KIS, I normally ignore you but this is too much. Anyone can see that Amzn has better technology than say, barnes and noble (who are the closest competitors currently). I was a director at Oracle in ERP applications and a manager of the Dell supply chain so yes, I know what a database is. Im sorry you have apparently lost the tiny fortune you had on this stock while the rest of us had 500%+ returns last year - now get lost.

How do you find this amazing? [Cookies have] been done since the first websites appeared in 94. Quite an arrogant tone you have to write so much garbage. The first web sites appeared in 1991 not 1994. Secondly persistent cookies, which is what allows "one click" is not a feature "done on websites". For a persistent cookie to work you need a client, (i.e. a browser) that knows about them so it can save them to disk. The first cookie enabled browser was the beta version of Netscape which was released in October 1994, fully three years after the initial release of the web.
