Amazon History

Following on my earlier post, here are two additional examples of practitioner web histories, both concerning Amazon.com.  The first is an idiosyncratic, twenty-part insider's account of Amazon in the late-1990s.  The second, a more targeted piece by a designer unconnected to Amazon, documents what is probably the company's most important contribution to the look and feel of today's web, the tab navigation.  (Thanks once again to Jeremy for the tip on the latter link.)
