Paiden ‘reads’ Each Peach Pear Plum.  

One night after reading Each Peach Pear Plum to Paiden, she said she wanted to read it back to me.  To my surprise, she MEMORIZED the whole book.  Well, actually I wasn’t that surprised.

Amazon - 2 years after purchase date, you receive an email offering to trade in your book for a gift card./via Simon Souris

This isn’t a meaningless but thoughtful design detail. This is millions of dollars in new revenue.
Amazon’s trade-in program is brilliant. Items exchanged are often re-sold, with Amazon taking a cut. The “gift card” is often redeemed for purchases greater than the value of the gift card, so Amazon makes money there too.
So 1 trade-in = 2 net-positive transactions for Amazon that otherwise may not have happened.

“Sarah might do something as simple as sit on her mat, lean forward and touch her toes - a hammy stretch from soccer practice - but somehow make it totally consuming. She had a concentration that expanded into her entire body. In many ways, it felt like I was watching a waterfall: the same roaring power, the same glassy beauty, with my brain achieving the same hum in its presence. It wasn’t difficulty or aesthetics. Most of her postures were the stuff b-list ice skaters would scorn on those terms. It was as if I was watching Sarah perfect herself. Or I was watching a more perfect Sarah. As she poured herself from posture to posture, this woman, standing on a towel on a mat in a slightly stinky room, took on a dimension I had previously only associated with natural phenomena, the stuff of Sierra Club calendars: rockwalls and ice chasms, somehow distilled into the body of a twenty-one-year-old.”

About

Since my business is in the world of online video, original web series and branded entertainment, this blog's goal is to be updated with stories relevant to that industry. But the reality is that I'll probably just update it with interesting but mostly unimportant things.
