Bookshop.Org Unites Indie Sellers to Battle Amazon
Apparently this launched earlier this year but I haven’t heard of it until now. Bookshop.org is a virtual bookshop that partners with indie book sellers as a rival to Amazon.
Hunter believes the reason for Bookshop’s quick success is readers’ fondness for their local booksellers. “Bookstores have been in trouble for a while because of Amazon’s growth, but this pandemic has really accelerated it. Amazon has gotten much more powerful, while there are 100-year-old stores that are hanging on for survival,” he said. “I think we were so successful because enough people were conscious of that, and wanted to rally around around their beloved bookstores, because they care about the world that we emerge from this pandemic into.”
Apple MagSafe Duo Charger May Launch Soon After Being Certified in South Korea
Customers may be able to get their hands on Apple MagSafe Due charger in the near future. MacRumors reported it has been certified by South Korea’s National Radio Research Agency (NRRA), indicating it is getting close to becoming available.
Apple announced the MagSafe Duo during its iPhone 12 launch event in October. The charging accessory is vaguely reminiscent of Apple’s canceled AirPower charging mat, featuring space to charge both an iPhone 12 and Apple Watch (but not AirPods) at the same time. Apple hasn’t provided specific availability or price details for the charging pad, and it’s not yet listed on Apple’s online store. Apple’s iPhone 12 press release simply says that it will be arriving at a “later date.”
