Amazon Book Search Boosting Sales So Far

Amazon Book Search Boosting Sales So Far 10/31/2003 01:39 AM
Amazon today was excited to announce that in the first week of their full-text book searching service, books in the service sold 9% better than those not in the search. While I do think the service is great, and I'm sure it will boost sales, I'm not sure these numbers mean anything. There was definitely a big boost in usage of this service due to the ton of publicity it received. So, let's see how it's doing a few months down the road, and then it might be worth talking about. In the meantime, various authors are sti ll complaining about the service. They quote an author of a travel book who is worried that readers only want a couple of sections and would print those out and never buy the book. I guess he hasn't been ot the library lately. If people just need a couple pages out of his book, they're not going to buy the book anyway.

New Government Computer System Takes 15
Steps To Save A Document

New Government Computer System Takes 15
Steps To Save A Document 07/22/2004 04:26 AM
Ah, the federal government at work. When you install a new computer system, you generally do so to make your office more efficient. Not with the government. It turns out that a new SAP powered computer system at two offices of (of all things) the Federal Technology Service (the GSA's info tech procurement group), has slowed things down to a crawl. They're blaming the training procedure, but it says people were trained... but apparently they were trained without actually seeing the system they were being trained on (no, seriously). The article claims that the GSA was shocked to discover that practice and theory didn't match, and that employees actually needed trainers on hand to help them when they actually had the new system in place. Of course, one reason why they might need training is that the system sounds ridiculously complex. It now takes 15 (count 'em) steps to save a file. Meanwhile, bills go unpaid, orders go unprocessed, and the group insists they're going to muddle through because turning back is not an option and "workarounds" will upset the auditors. Apparently, the $46 million of our tax money spent on the system did not go to any usability testing. Among the other descriptive phrases used in the article: "someone bursts into tears almost hourly," "it is very, very difficult to learn the new system," "unnecessarily complicated," and "not always intuitive." Sounds great.
