PSFK is one of my favorite sites that I think everyone should read. http://www.psfk.com/

Innovative Company and Innovation Blogs (from Yahoo! Group) My Innovative Company from the Yahoo! Group was Amazon.com, although now I would like to change it to Target. Here are my blogs on innovation as well.

The innovative company that I want to research is Amazon.com. Amazon.com is an online marketplace that allows consumers to shop online from both Amazon itself, as well as third party sellers. Amazon allows consumers to go through only one checkout transaction, even when buying from more than one seller. Amazon is known for selling books and movies, but consumers can purchase a variety of products including magazines and newspapers, video games, software, amazon shorts, electronics, audio and video, cameras and photos, cell phones and service, computers and PC hardware, office products, musical instruments, outlet, home and garden products, bed and bath products, furniture and decor, gourmet food, kitchen and housewares, pet supplies, automotives, tools and hardware, industrial and scientific, apparel and accessories, shoes, jewelry andwatches, grocery, beauty, health and personal care, sports and outdoors, toys and games, and baby products.
