The Robot Co-op: Word on Investment

Posted on 09.02.05 at 02:04 CET

Amazon has invested in Robot Co-op, makers of the 43 Things project. If Amazon is interested, can a social-network-enabled online shopping experience be far behind? Robot Co-op also use Ruby on Rails for their web development, a nice push further into legitimacy for this excellent framework in a world dominated by masochistic Java “web” developers in their ivory towers/frameworks who seem to consider touching html code as lowering themselves to the level of primates, thus not getting the web at all (yes, there are exceptions, but they’re few and far between).
