Amazon (is) Rank

No, really. Amazon is rank, and a move like this makes me glad I look to abebooks.com or my indie bookstores in town (or hell, even B&N) before buying from Amazon.com.

If you're not up on the story, this link - Amazon Rank - will give you the basics.  For an author's point of view, here's a post from an author whose book was deranked.  And here's just another random blog post, the first I read, that has several links about the stupidity of Amazon.com.

Finally, if you want to raise awareness of this you can fill out the online petition, and read this page here, and do your part to expand awareness of Amazon's short sightedness.

I might have more coherent thoughts on this later, but that's all I can muster right now.
