Palm Gets One-Upped By Customer's Ad

It is hard not to pity Palm these days: the company is projecting very poor sales for its upcoming quarter and analysts have abandoned any pretense of liking the stock. Worst, Palm’s attempts to reconnect with its customers - arguably it's main problem - have been overshadowed by a head-turning ad created by Palm aficionado Heiko Thies. The ad, writes Wired, "manages to be both exciting and s  [...]

Beyond Mobile Coupons: Integrated Payments on the Horizon

Mobile coupons are a booming online marketing category right now. Unfortunately, using them is not a seamless transaction as most consumers still cannot pay for the discounted product using their smartphone. New tech is starting to come to market, though, that promises to fill in that gap. For the most part applications that integrate the mobile coupon with the payment piece are only available on a limited basis to a small subset of an already small user group. However as they become main  [...]

Online Retailers Tackle Sales-Tax Hurdles

Sales taxes - or the absence of them - are one of the big reasons why some online retailers can often beat out their brick-and-mortar counterparts that also sell online. Simply put, many e-tailers do not collect taxes from their customers if they don’t have a presence in a state. This gives them an edge over operations that range from Wal-Mart to Target to Sak's Fifth Avenue. This discrepancy is also one reason sites such as eBay and Amazon have thrived in the downturn,   [...]

Black Friday Survival Guide for Online Shoppers
