As a student of marketing, I still don't get why people get so het up about one indifferent item offered once per day.
I mean, my husband wanted to know what W O O T was, so I showed him the home page. Seems the daily item was still up: some older low-end digital camera you can get for less any number of other places, if you really really want an obsolete digital camera.
We both shrugged our shoulders and got on with our lives.
See, that's the thing. It's so easy to comparison-shop on the Web for standard items like home electronics.
But if anyone can explain the Woot frenzy to me, please do.
Oh wait. I just googled the daily What, er, Woot. People are buying these things on Woot to resell. Rotsa ruck with that. Hope it works for you.
