Amazon.com Offers Ginger For Sale

from the ha-ha dept

The folks over at Amazon.com are having fun and decided to put up a page offering the mysterious Ginger (or "IT") for sale. The page is located here. They claim you can put your email address in and it will alert you when "it" is on sale. I like their little mysterious IT drawing.

    Why in the world would anyone go the route of offering something for sale already when they have no idea what the heck it is or even how much it's going to go for?! If you ask me, I think Amazon is just becoming desperate... we all know they havent been doing *THAT* well...

    Far-future email alerts worthless?

    On a lark, I signed up for an email alert from CNN that was supposed to be sent whenever they figured out who won the election. I'm still waiting for that message. I predict that the same will be true of this Ginger. If it becomes the next big thing, everybody in the civilized world will know it before you get your email notification.
