" BREAKING: Woot To Be Acquired By Amazon,
Then Left To Amuse Ourselves
Holy crap! Woot has signed an agreement with Amazon - yes, the Amazon - to become an independent subsidiary of the ecommerce colossus. Woot HQ will remain in Carrollton, Texas, and will operate as autonomously as other Amazon companies like Zappos and Audible."

In an email I just received.

May not be a big change if it continues to operate separately. And could perhaps offer an opportunity for Amazon to unload excess inventory from other channels... I just hope they keep the copywriters on!

I was doing some research on Amazon, I am trading it now (and loosing money ) and was checking for news to see what may happen next. I see about the woot purchase and then I get the email.

Check out the monkey video about the news:
