Use Amazon.com to order everything and anything your little heart desires off the internet? Want to get notifications on when orders are fulfilled, shipped, and arrive at your door step? Amazon is now doing that via SMS. Read their FAQ for more information.

Between Amazon.com and Newegg.com, I’ve easily spent over $10,000 via e-commerce back when I lived in the states. Why oh why does is suck so hard in Europe is beyond me.
