Amazon's gold box.
Seth Godin ("My name is Peter and I read marketing blogs." - "Hello Peter!") mentioned the new Gold box feature at Amazon.
There is a little gold box at Amazon, and if you click it you get a few promotions that last only one hour. Very cool: I looked at them all. You then get some seductively labelled buttons:

We plan to finalize the spec in a week or so, and then quickly to release software that can show of some of the funky possibilities of XFML... Stay tuned!
New Monster jobsearch interface
