Amazon Launch Web Services 4.0

Amazon have launched version 4.0 of what is now called the Amazon E-Commerce Service.

Having messed around with the services before, my first impression of the new API is that it is much cleaner than before, and the features they’ve added are most welcome. Reasons for this will become apparent in due course.

Now, what would be really cool is if other retailers such as ThinkGeek, Nerdorama, and CD Wow supported the API. Call it Open Retail or something. There are reasons why that’s unlikely to happen, but a man can wish can’t he?

What Say You?

This is the website of one David Thomson (aka dwlt) from Edinburgh, Scotland. It contains the results of my patented thinking-out-loud process.

According to the about page, I'm a miscellaneist — at any given moment I'm a game designer, entrepreneur, programmer, consultant, and/or writer. I also read a lot.

If my ideas are intriguing to you, why not subscribe?
