Assignment #12

1. The title of the post I chose is “Should you be buying and selling textbooks at Amazon?"

2. The permalink URL to this post is http://cis471.blogspot.com/2009/12/should-you-be-buying-and-selling.html-you-be-buying-and-selling.html

3. This post has tags to an article on Information processing at Tomorrow’s University, Amazon’s Book &Textbook Buyback, an article on The Wall Street Journal on Amazon’s launch of Kindle for textbooks, an article on USA Today also on Amazon’s Kindle, an article on Gizmodo on Apple tablet rumors and an article from the New York Times on what Hewlett Packard is up to.

4. I chose this article because as a student I have to struggle with buying textbooks every semester and it is a subject I am very interested in. I am constantly trying to find better more economical ways to get textbooks such as buying ebooks, used books, and renting them.

5. This post fits in my class outline under technology, implications and application concepts.
