Amazon recommends insults
18 April 2007
I’m signed up to Amazon’s book recommendations by email, which are apparently based on things that I’ve bought in the past. Very occasionally, the (I presume automatic) choice of leader book which is put in the email’s sublect header is sometimes quite amusing or insulting.
Witness today’s email subject:
Amazon.co.uk recommends Teach Yourself Ethics and more
Charmed, I’m sure.
