All the robots are in place.

My wife loves Diapers.com.  Same price as Target, free overnight shipping.  How do they do it?  How does their warehouse process millions of orders for thousands of products and get them off a shelf, in to a box and out the door fast enough for next-day delivery?  Robots.

With all the talk about the death of newspapers at the hands of the iPhone and Internet… I still love magazines.  We get about a dozen or more delivered to our office every month.  Big, color, glossy pictures – they are fun to casually flip through and read during lunch – and sitting on table for passersby to see – provide a little hint of creativity and inspiration.  They just need a better business model.
