Comments from those who selected it as one
of their Top 10 Tools in 2008

"I'm
adding this to my list in 2008, because in recent years
it has grown to be much more than just an online store.
Because of its Web 2.0 features, most notably user
ratings and reviews, I don't make any major purchases
without first going to Amazon (and a few other such
sites) to read the good, bad, and ugly from others who
have bought the particular product."

"Probably the finest website anywhere.
I use Amazon as a research tool both
seriously and when I am “just looking”. In music,
video and especially books - I spend a lot of time
at this site!"
