for the impatient book-lover

I love Amazon. I do. I've probably been shopping there for more than 10 years by now. But there is so much junk on their pages now, they take forever to load. It's irritating.

So yesterday I got particularly impatient, and started searching to see if they had a text-only site for accessibility (no they don't. Boo). And I found:

Amazon Wireless

OK, so it's designed for cell phones, but it's lightning-fast. Perfect. No one said you have to be using a cell phone to use a site designed for mobile access. In fact, I use a bunch of them, made into gadgets on my iGoogle page (this one puts me at 4 - Google calendar, LiveJournal, Facebook, and Amazon).

So, I hope this makes the day of someone who'd getting a little tired of Amazon's speed.

That it nice. Why they put so much crap on their pages is beyond me. Now if I ever use them to buy anything again, i will keep this in mind!
