Free idea: candy aisle

5 pointsby sambvor 19 Jahren8 comments

create an e-commerce widget that formats vertically for inclusion in blogs and on web sites. (leftnav, rightnav) a good place to sell you e-books, t-shirts, etc.

make it free to use and pick up a % + transaction fee. hook it up with amazon and others with affiliates programs for those without things to sell.

i'm still checking out amazon, but blinkcart is too, well, blinky for my tastes. i'm not a big fan of the lightbox effect and when the store pops up it's loud.

I think I saw something on TechCrunch over the summer about a company that does exactly this.

this is kind of neat. if i could easily throw up something like this on the right side of my blog where visitors could purchase books that I'm recommending I would definitely do it.

you should do it them. i don't have the time to do it myself, but would be a willing first customer.

rightcart looks like it might work, but it's not apparent how the pricing model is structured. i assume i have to sign up to get that info. (and i'm not paying a buck for a "wink" - whatever that means.)
