Company Launches New E-Commerce Site After Seven-Year Alliance with
Amazon.com
After seven years of being teamed with Amazon.com for e-commerce, it's
Independence Day for Borders as the company launches its much anticipated,
content rich e-commerce site-Borders.com. The site will do more than just
sell books...it promises to bring a real bookstore experience to life
online.
The most prominent feature is the "Magic Shelf." When users log on to
the new site's home page, they will be greeted by a virtual bookshelf
displaying book covers much like in a bookstore. The magic shelf can be
personalized based on the preferences of the individual user.
The new Borders.com also offers original and exclusive borders video
content featuring world-renowned authors such as John Grisham, music
performances from the likes of Joss Stone, and even appearances by
political leaders such as Bill Clinton. There are book club programs,
cooking programs, poetry showcases and real-life advice programs, as well
as shows featuring events that happen live in borders stores.
To meet the needs of the 26+ million members enrolled in its free
"borders rewards" loyalty program, the Borders.com site will allow these
members to earn and redeem rewards for shopping online as well as in
stores, something they could not do before. For more information on other
borders.com features and the site launch, visit http://www.bordersgroupinc.com.
