		<description><![CDATA[That&#039;s a lot of coding involved. Not to mention you need to have top notch security as you&#039;re basically acting as a 3rd party authorized to complete a purchase on behalf of the user.

You would have to go a long way to convincing the public that such a site is not only safe, but serves a purpose.

I get what you&#039;re trying to do, it would be an amazon version of hootsuite for twitter. I schedule all of my weekend promotional tweets through hootsuite and then it takes care of the rest for me.

Tweets and an actual purchase are very different. Your version would require people to enter their amazon account data. Even if you get them to do that, I don&#039;t know if amazon would allow such an interface. They are very protective of their clients, and entire purchase interface.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@Spencer - I&#039;m thinking of a service, much like kickstarter, that would &quot;spread the love&quot; over X number of days. Someone, like Larry, could setup a book bomb on the service and link to it. Users could buy the book and get a message saying their order would be completed in Y days. The service would hold the order and push it through at the right time to spread out the impact the of the book bomb.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve alwasye thought there was some pre and post buying from these book bombs from people who just can&#039;t get to their computer on the day of.

A consecutive approach might work better but it would be harder to do. I think the best way would actually be have groups of people post separate bombing runs.

That is Monster Hunter Nation is one, then arrange another on the following day with fellow authors on FB, and a third if possible with another group. Don&#039;t ask one source to spread it out as that can lead to complications. Treat each source as a separate bombing run, and have multiple sources schedule them in a row.

I&#039;m trying to organize one with a group of authors on FB, and a few authors thought I meant we buy each others books. I had to explain it two more times to them, that we are getting our fans to buy our fellow author&#039;s books.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amazon is constantly playing around with the salesrank algorithm to make it more accurate. The downside to that, for this particular case, is that temporary spikes in sales don&#039;t seem to have as much impact as they used to have.

It would be super interesting to pick a really low priced item and see which approach works best: a MOAB style book bomb or a cluster bomb type approach - having people spread out the purchase over 2 or 3 days.

Now my mind is spinning with ways to make it really easy to do the cluster bomb...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When it jumps like that wait a second and just hit the &quot;back&quot; button. Not the page buttons the actual &quot;back&quot; button. It takes you back to the last screen, and if you&#039;ve been reading for a while the last screen is a page of the book.

You could also try power cycling your Kindle every so often. Electronics like to be power cycled even if they have an amazing sleep setting like the Kindle.

I love my Kindle and prefer it to real books now.

Hope that helps.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I ordered the paperback.  I hate trying to read my freaking kindle.  I&#039;ll be reading along, and it&#039;ll jump halfway ahead through the book.

It&#039;s at the point that I have to keep track of the % read number at the bottom so I can find my way back.

It&#039;s like reading a book in the park, and some bastard walks up and grabs my book, shuts it and throws it in the bushes at random times.

At least I know my Kindle library is secure.... Until Amazon decides that it isn&#039;t.  Or some IT puke about to get fired decides to trash everyone&#039;s&#039; accounts, like happened with SideKick.

As far as I can tell, the only advantage to ebooks is the searchability.  That and possibly the fact that my signed copies of MHI, MHV, MHA are all starting to get a little worn.  The only thing stopping a hammer through the screen during MHL was that I wasn&#039;t yet finished.

I guess I&#039;d better help out those looking around the web to see this post.

Didn&#039;t Paul Genesse&#039;s story in &quot;A Walk In The Abyss&quot; feature Kate Upton in a body paint swimsuit?  She looked practically nude on the cover.  At least she was kissing Mila Kunis at the time.  I bet President Obama wishes the IRS had just been reading it, instead of looking for naked Tea Party racist protesters. Patrick Tracy might be somebody&#039;s baby daddy.  Kim Kardashian said so in her internet sex video.]]></description>
