How Do You Prefer to Holiday Shop?

GeekSugar — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 10:15:25 -0800

While perusing the news, I noticed two seemingly conflicting stories right beside each other on the same site. The headlines: "Online Retail Thriving This Holiday Season" and "A Site to Help People Shop Online Attracts Investors."

The two articles aren't actually contradictory, the first is a welcome optimistic look at the future of e-commerce with Forrester Research reporting that most online retailers turned a profit in 2008 as business continues to grow. The second article profiles a new site called Milo, which allows you to enter your location and the name of a product you're looking for, and it delivers a list of nearby retail stores where you can find the item. Milo's business model operates on the "instant gratification" theory - you don't want to wait for an item you order, you want to find it right away.

I tend to prefer a mix of online and retail store shopping, depending on the item and what's convenient. What about you?

We took one look at Robert and Kristen's arrival at LAX last night - ICYMI, check out the amazing photos! They were also right next to each other as they deboarded and made their way through the terminal, past gift shops and Starbucks. Both Robert and Kristen are enjoying some apparently PDA-filled downtime after New Moon's record-breaking release. They both went on the official Twilight Twitter to thank their fans, with Rob saying, "It's very exciting to be a part of something embraced by so many people."
