I checked out the page, and bookmarked it. My degree is in graphic design, but 10 years ago I became facinated with designing for the screen. I read as many relevent books as I can to continue to my self-education in the nuances of human factors and interface design. Anyway, the purpose of this email was to pass on a tip. You can set up an affiliation with Amazon books (which I do not represent) whereby all purchases from links from your site to theirs, will fetch you $2.50 per purchase. A collegue of mine has made this arrangement and is very pleased. Your list is so useful, and is sure to be passed around to many people...some of whom may even bounce over to Amazon after looking at your site. I don't know the specifics of creating this arrangement, and perhaps it may not even be of interest to you. But having just learned of this arrangement that Amazon will make...and then seeing your list...well, it seems a natural fit. Best regards, Tracy Drew __________________________________________ TK Drew | Keaton Drew Design http://www.tkdrew.com mailto:tkdrew@primenet.com Voice: 202.518.0853 Fax: 202.518.0854 Interaction Design | Photo Illustration | Graphic Design From associates@amazon.com Wed Mar 18 11:56:17 1998 Received: from amazon.com (154-31.amazon.com [204.177.154.31]) by mail.acm.org (8.8.5/8.7.5) with ESMTP id LAA32034 for ; Wed, 18 Mar 1998 11:56:15 -0500 From: associates@amazon.com Received: from zephyr.amazon.com (zephyr.amazon.com [204.177.154.23]) by amazon.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id IAA11918 for ; Wed, 18 Mar 1998 08:58:07 -0800 (PST) Received: by zephyr.amazon.com id IAA12486; Wed, 18 Mar 1998 08:58:05 -0800 (PST) Received: (from nobody@localhost) by online-4-tu1.amazon.com (8.8.5/8.7.3) id IAA05294; Wed, 18 Mar 1998 08:58:04 -0800 (PST) Date: Wed, 18 Mar 1998 08:58:04 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199803181658.IAA05294@online-4-tu1.amazon.com> X-Authentication-Warning: online-4-tu1.amazon.com: nobody set sender to associates@amazon.com using -f To: perlman@acm.org Subject: Amazon.com: Thank you for your application Cc: associates@amazon.com Status: RO Thanks for submitting your application to participate in the Amazon.com Associates Program. Your application has been temporarily approved. We'll contact you by e-mail once we have reviewed and approved your application. *Important*: Be sure to save this e-mail message--you will need some of the information here to properly set up your links to Amazon.com. You can set up your Web site now. You have been assigned a unique Associates ID. You'll use this ID when linking your sponsoring Web site into our catalog; detailed instructions are included at the end of this message. Your unique Associates ID is: garyperlman. USING THE AMAZON.COM BRAND NAME ------------------------------- As you may already know, Amazon.com has received a great deal of very positive press coverage since we opened. From The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek and the Associated Press to PC Magazine and WebWeek, mainstream and industry press alike have helped to make the Amazon.com brand name one of the more well-known among Internet sites. Our extensive advertising campaign reaches users of many major Web services and search tools, and our printed ads are found in places like the New York Times Review of Books. You should consider using not only our name but one of the logos or banners found on our site at: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/subst/assoc-art.html so that your visitors have the chance to recognize our name as a familiar and trustworthy Internet retailer working in association with you. SUGGESTIONS FOR SUCCESSFUL PRESENTATION: ----------------------------------------- We've put a page on our Web site filled with suggestions for building a great online bookstore. These tips are taken from our most successful Associates, and we highly recommend reading them. Follow the link on our home page to "Build Your Own Bookstore", and from there link to "Build a Great Bookstore". You can also connect directly at this URL: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/subst/assoc-success-tips.html HOW TO LINK INTO OUR CATALOG: ----------------------------- You can use any sort of book descriptions, review material and graphics that you like when describing books on your Web site. All we need is a separate link into our catalog for each book you wish to recommend. You may add or remove these links at any time without our prior approval; as long as they follow the prescribed format we'll detect them automatically when they are used. Each link to our catalog will be the same except for the ISBN of the book. You'll see the "isbn=" part of the link at the end of each example below. To find the ISBN of the book you wish to list, use our Web site and search for that book with any of our search tools. The ISBN for each edition (hardcover, paperback, book on tape) is displayed on the detail page for that book. Remember--you may change which books you list whenever you like. You won't need our permission and it's not even necessary to advise us of the changes--they'll be automatically detected and commissioned properly. EXAMPLE: -------- For each book you recommend, link it to us like this: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=1234567890/garyperlmanA/ Note: You *must* use a capital A at the end of this link, not a lower-case a. Of course, the ISBN will change for each book. Do not include any spaces or dashes in the ISBN when making these links. Also, make sure to check our catalog first--we can only sell what's listed there. VERY IMPORTANT: If you copy the URL of a book page from our Web site and modify it to fit the format above, be sure to remove the 19-character shopping basket ID that appears at the end of the bookmarked or copied URL. Your store code should immediately follow the ISBN as in the example above. If you leave this in your modified links, they will not work properly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The information we have about your Web site is as follows: Contact e-mail Address: perlman@acm.org Contact address: Gary Perlman 2008 Lane Rd Columbus OH 43220-3010 Tel: 614-457-5508 Payee e-mail address: buckchi-info@acm.org Payee address: Central Ohio ACM SIGCHI PO Box 20187 Columbus OH 43220-0187 Tel: 614-761-5058 Description of books you intend to list: Human-Computer Interaction -- General HCI Education User Interface Development -- General User Interface Design -- Principles and Guidelines User Interface Development - Software User Interface Evaluation Styleguides for Specific Platforms Human Factors and Ergonomics Graphic Design Sponsoring Web site name: Gary Perlman's Suggested Readings in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), User Interface (UI) Development, & Human Factors (HF) Sponsoring Web site URL: http://www.acm.org/~perlman/readings.html Your Web site name, in the format we may use on our Web site: Gary Perlman in association with Amazon.com ------------------------- If you have any questions, you can e-mail us at associates@amazon.com and we'll be happy to help.
