Since its release, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been Amazon’s best-selling product of all time.  Harry Potter is an owl-endangering phenomenon, no doubt, and it’s reasonable that Amazon would sell so many copies considering Amazon’s ease of ordering and ability to preorder things well before their release date.  However, Harry Potter has been sent back to school and a new product has become Amazon’s most popular product of all time.  Interestingly enough, the product that passed Harry Potter on Amazon’s all-time sales list is something on which you can READ Harry Potter’s adventures.  The Amazon Kindle e-reader has become Amazon.com’s best-selling product of all time.

Here’s the amazing thing.  We’re not talking about the Kindle all time as Amazon’s best-selling product of all time, we’re talking about the third generation of Kindle as Amazon’s best-selling product of all time.  We’re not even counting the first two generations of Kindle in the numbers!  Amazon’s record-breaking Christmas 2009?  Forget about it!  Competition from other e-readers and tablet PCs?  Not even an issue, according to Jeff Bezos.

“We’re seeing that many of the people who are buying Kindles also own an LCD tablet,” said Amazon’s founder in a statement.  “Customers report using their LCD tablets for games, movies and Web browsing, and their Kindles for reading sessions.”

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
