Speaking of which, I always wondered at the default gray background choice of the first Netscape browser(s). It looked too sophisticated to have been accidental. In hindsight, however, someone there must've misunderstood basic usability, e.g. optimal contrast ratios? [And then a year later someone had that unbright idea of turning homepages black for a day's web protest against some...

ianf: The gray background was the default in Mosaic, so Netscape was just keeping the status quo. The black background protest was against the Communications Decency Act, which would have made lots of innocent speech illegal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...

Heheh, so true.

Ray Cromwell, with the pixels being so much bigger back then, I suspect that the continued need for button bars was the impetus behind increasing screen resolutions.

If this was supposed to be March 5, 1995, that was before Sun announced Java, so the coffee pot needing Java joke wouldn't have made sense yet.

Damn, just by me "viewing" the image that mentioned Java, I got a "Java Update Available" window. I'm not kidding, it popped up the second the image loaded... I hate Java. This is a great parody though, good work.

I would like to suplex whichever PM at Microsoft decided it wasn't worth making the taskbar span multiple monitors.

You can always go with a separate program like Ultramon or DisplayFusion
- Nick Malaguti
Thats beside the point. its two-thousand-and freaking-nine. It should be baked in by default.
- Roberto Bonini
But if Microsoft took every good 3rd party app and baked the feature in to Windows, they'd kill lots of 3rd party app developers. In order to keep the ecosystem alive they have to pick and choose what functionality they bake it. Look at what happens when Apple steals app ideas on OS X and the iPhone.
- Nick Malaguti
Agree it should be in there by default, my only simple reason would be that how would they handle having two different size monitors where the monitor bases do not align? Like I said though that is my reason for not being pissed off that it doesn't do it by default. ;)
- travispuk
Create additional toolbars for the other monitors. Use them to hold quicklaunch and other stuff. Leave the real taskbar for only application buttons, tray, and start button. You will have accomplished basically the same thing.

I'll take a wild stab in the dark and say it's something to do with letting users join without signing up or better email features for people who are put off the FF interface. Some way to bring in new, less social-media experienced users, to FriendFeed.

Is that price right? $890 million? They had a billion in yearly revenues, right?
- David Damore
http://blogs.zappos.com/ceolett... is Tony's letter. Michael: I'm wondering what it means for Amazon. David: yes.
- Robert Scoble
Perhaps a more transparent Amazon?
- Michael Turro
Michael: I sure hope so!
- Robert Scoble
Why was the valuation so low? is it a low margin business? Shouldn't the valuation have been some multiple of sales?
- David Damore

I never would've thought it would happen...wow indeed.

- David Damore
people shouldn't worry about the culture changing -- amazon bought shopbop.com and it has not changed a bit -- only for the better.
- Patricia
This is part of the evolution of business. I know there will be a lot of worried Zappos employees, but they shouldn't, this will help them in a long run. Other companies, like DSW, I am sure were looking at the Zappos model and wondering how they can capitalize on it.
- Erik Boles
David Damore - $890 million in stock, not raw money. you usually see a lower # on stock as it has a strong growth potential.
- Erik Boles
Excited overall but the one line in Tony's letter is a bit concerning "For Zappos, our vision remains the same: delivering happiness to customers, employees, and vendors. We just want to get there faster." Faster does not equal better.
- Jose Castillo
zappos means nothing to me - I live in Europe. But what an amazing video by Bazos. Low margins need economies of scale.buyin Zappos makes sense to me
- DC Crowley
Jose: the thing is, they laid off people last fall. They also don't have Amazon's brand. Everyone I know uses Amazon. Not everyone I know uses Zappos. This makes both brands better.

@Eric Boles: Thanks. *Interesting.

Favorite line so far, actually a partial line: "... unless they bake us cookies and deliver them in person."

Just knew we would see the S word in there somewhere. [The S word is... synergy].

David: I wonder how the cultures will clash, though. Zappos is very transparent and fun. Amazon, closed and not so much fun. I wonder which culture will win?
- Robert Scoble
Hopefully they find a happy medium
- Robert Burgin
@Scobleizer: Sounds like they will have separate cultures. Can both cultures coexist? Me thinks yes. 75% on the upside.
- David Damore
Did this all break after the closing bell today?
- David Damore
@Scobleizer -- Zappos is tightly focused on culture and customer service, which has done them very well, I think Jeff will be able to help them move to the major presence they need to be. I don't see a conflict, I think Amazon can teach them a thing or two about business, and maybe, if the timing is right and people are open, Tony can teach zappos a thing or two about culture and loving your job

I once ordered some brown shoes and they sent black from the same style. When I complained they sent me the brown pair and let me keep both and included a $10 discount

Thanks @scobleizer Just caught wind of the acquisition and it sounds like a good match to me despite the culture differences. Culture will take a hit, it's inevitable but hopefully Amazon will bring some interesting elements to the table to balance things out. One of my favorite photography sites http://www.dpreview.com was purchased by Amazon and at least outwardly the site has only improved.

@Robert Scoble ...Any word if this is going to be a Dell/Alienware style merger.. or an outright purchase?
- John Blanton
John: looks like an outright purchase, but who knows? I gotta go do more homework.
- Robert Scoble
Hope Amazon doesn't screw them up - All my female relatives just rave about Zappos.
- PXLated
@Robert Scoble I would hope they let Zappos keep their brand/branding but it's just like you said yeah too early to tell at this point.
- John Blanton
Robert: Agreed, but I hope the desire to grow too fast doesn't kill the service - then it just becomes Amazon Shoes - granted, it will make a ton more money but at what cost to the end user. Should be interesting to watch unfold.
- Jose Castillo
@Robert Scoble ...according to this.. http://blogs.zappos.com/ceolett... .. Amazon will be the only shareholder yet Zappos is retaining their independance... So it's just like the Dell/Alienware merger.
