Great presentation. Amazon contiue to lead the way and although their website isn’t always the most visually existing it has a consistently strong design with lots of extra selling opportunities for customers.

An excellent presentation, thanks Jared.

Goes to show that even the largest of eCommerce sites don’t always it right first time round but they keep trying and testing elements until they get there.

Lots of good and informative information and well worth a watch.

Really LOVE the presentation. Really HATE how the player is working. Please fix!

Debug Details:

If/When the player is interrupted I can’t restart it beyond 30 minutes (or so) in (around the Amazon Makeover/Goal-Tool time slide). Most common interruptions — trying to reset to full screen and screen saver activating.

Trying to fast forward to/past that point causes the player to pause (lock up really) and not play. Stepping back “sometimes” recovers but it continues to lock up.

The navigation at the bottom (if that’s what it is) doesn’t make (any) sense (tight on left, really wide on right; looks vaguely logarithmic to time with no relationship to the length any given slide appears).

This is (Windows) browser independent; reproduced this in Firefox, IE8 and Chrome.
