    Amazon link

    Received an internal email that "Amazon are giving a 5% contribution to school funds if orders are recieved via a link on the school website", and asking what I think.

    My gut reaction is that I don't like ads, but...what do you think?

    Apropos of nothing, I've just been looking at their listing for the Denon AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable. It might be expensive, but it's getting amazing customer reviews...

    We're signed up with EasyFundraising and get money from purchases through Amazon, Play.com and many other websites. It's quite a useful little earner!

    how do you advertise the fact? Does the amazon only work on items that you link? or just a general "shop here type link"?

    Care to give me your referall link, so if I ever do register I can use it? (you get 20% of what I get out of it in addition (taken from them, not us))

    Amazon.com: Denon AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable: Electronics
    After reading the great reviews for that Denon cable I bought one thinking it could supply inverse reactive current for use in my unilateral phase detractor. As you've probably guessed, the modial interaction of magneto-reluctance and capacitive directance deplenerated my dingle-arm.
    doh!

    So is it a link on your website or do you just tell parents about it?

    It's not exactly fancy at the mo... the website is being scrapped and rewritten, but it will be included once the rewrite is there.
