Ooohhh! They "clean room" reverse-engineered Amazon's ranking algorithms? DataGuy rocks!
And Howey, too, for funding that datacenter. Non. Trivial.
Color me impressed.

Equally impressive in a different vein is the massive drop on the BPH ebook sales.
Slightly troubling: the slight gains for mid and small tradpubs in november now look like seasonal variation. They're holding on to their share but not taking advantage of BPH losses. I had hoped for better from them.
