Amazon is Amazing

Seriously, their product recommendation system is nothing short of fantastic. I got this mail recommending me books and music based on what I told them I owned. Haven't updated them in yonks but get this, in that time, I have already owned everything contained in this list. Some were given to me by friends and some were purchased. But I have them all.



Amazing hor?

*true, but sometimes the autogenerated system can be insulting too. Some of the recommendations I would never touch with a 10-feet pole!

*Hmm...a lot of their recommendations don't suit me at all. I think it's only about one hit out of ten.

*Haha! Don't worry, I think I'm more narcissistic than u. In fact, the fact that I said i'm more narcissistic proves it! LOL! ;P

*Awww, if you are indeed a narcissist, you have a good reason for it, sweetie :-) If you have it, flaunt it! Hee!

*Huhuhu...I have yet to complete my list and only one wish was filled! I've owned Cecelia Ahern's PS : I Love You.

Wish this Christmas, someone will be nice enough to buy me some nice books from Nicholas Sparks and Cecelia Ahern.
