Amazon.com is one of the biggest success stories of the Internet. It was started by Jeff Bezos from a garage in Seattle, Washington in 1995 and is now the largest online retailer1 in the world. Bezos was Time magazine’s Person of the Year in 1999 for popularizing online shopping. His company originally sold only books but has diversified2 into selling music, video games, toys, electronics and other popular ranges of goods. Amazon has cleverly marketed itself worldwide by establishing separate websites in different countries. In 2007 Amazon launched its Kindle3 e-book reader, which now enjoys a huge share of that market. A year later it teamed up with toy and electronics makers4 to sell goods with minimal5 packaging to help the environment. It remains6 an innovative7 leader in the area of online commerce.
