Comment on Woot To Be Acquired By Amazon

Comments

Its been interesting watching Amazon's acquisition strategy.

The deal-sealer for me was the video of the monkey rapping about it: http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=13391

Yeah, I can't really think of many other companies that acquire smaller companies, and then let them operate with their money as autonomous entities. (No sarcasm.)

Apple and Microsoft surely don't, at least.

Amazon is even creating separately branded subsidiaries from scratch, like Endless.com.
