I've sold out

The evil empire has corrupted this blog.

Well. I joined the Amazon Associates 'programme', last week which means that all the ~200 Amazon links that were already present on bent back tulips - all the books I link to, from my books page and from my front page - now have an extra bit on the end of the URL. This means that, should a click-through result in a happy and delighted new Amazon customer, I'll get a small yet decent commission.

Now, I'm not too pressed for cash at the moment, so this was mainly prompted by my curiosity as to a) the click-through rate, and b) the click-through to ordered items ratio. If you're interested, thus far I've had just over 20 clicks in about five days. (No orders as yet.)

Anyway, just thought I'd inform you rather than sneaking them in surreptitiously. Here beginneth the experiment.
