Amazon Hacks For Fun and Money
An anonymous reader writes "There's a new BusinessWeek article looking at some of the cool hacks coming out of Amazon's open API and XML feed policy. Some nifty stuff - 27,000 developers have apparently signed up to build hacks on Amazon data. It seems '..most are only part-timers and hobbyists, but a growing number are serious programmers who seek to make a living selling products based on the data Amazon is offering on a silver platter.'"

i didn't read the article, but watch, after 5 minutes i'm guarenteed at least a point. simple 5 step guide to being modded up on /.
1. post early
2. say microsoft stinks, and they're meany heads who don't play nice
3. bash microsoft once more since once is never enough
4. say something witty, with banter. (insert witty banter here)
5. say something even more funny and almost on topic.
6. For bonus points combine all 5.
microsoft is stinky, and i'm witty, and it's nice that there's stuff being given out on silver platters by amazon... unlike microsoft who still smells funny... uhh.. did i do it right?.. oh well... i had my mindless fun. I'm off to read the article and post on topic next round ;)
I just downloaded Revolution OS (There's no way I'm giving Thinkgeek my money for this shit) and I saw Malda on an couch bald and fucking scary looking shit it was... What does Fent see in this loser?

Imagine mcdonald wanting to be a better franchise and hired annoying teenagers to cause problems in and outside the restaurant to see how they can improve.
:-P
Somewhat off topic... But, imagine the fun of a job where McD's paid you to reak havoc in Burger King and Wendy's resturants
I wonder what the interview for that job would consist of...
you are a gay ass hat. the words mean what they mean and only that, there is nothing else anyone could possibley think they mean. you are a fag
who cares. McDonalds still sucks. Crappy American shit smothered between two fat drenched buns. Mmmm, delicious, I'm sure.
Nice to see the word "Hacker" used properly, to mean someone pushing the limits of X tech, as opposed to the usual "Hacker = Criminal".
For many years I've seen the negative responses, as a self-confessed computer hacker. Its only in the past few years I've noticed more recognition of the true meaning of hacker from people.
