Amazon FAIL (or: Twilight Made Me Gay)
My response to Amazon's recent policy change, where they strip books they claim to have adult content of their search functionality, ranking, and listing. Books on homosexuality, even those that do NOT have adult content, are included in this digital blacklist-- (see #amazonfail on twitter for a play by play of the whole thing). www.jacksonpearce.com AS YOU WISH (HarperCollins) is available for pre-order here: s7y.usFrom: JacksonAPearceViews: 6694 152 ratingsTime: 03:47 More in People & Blogs -

Doctor Who and the Failure of Amazon
I gush about the Doctor Who Easter special and tell you why you shouldn't be buying from Amazon.com now. Amazon Rank Function: verb Inflected Form(s): amazon ranked 1. To censor and exclude on the basis of adult content in literature (except for Playboy, Penthouse, dogfighting and graphic novels depicting incest orgies). 2. To make changes based on inconsistent applications of standards, logic and common sense.

Amazon Fail - THE MUSICAL!
By now you've probably heard about #amazonfail, and its sisters, #glitchmyass and #nopants. For those who haven't, Amazon has taken many GLBT books off of the ranking system, but kept the Best of Playboy Centerfolds and The Anarchist's Cookbook and such. So, to protest, we have set the twitterverse on fire, as well as taken off our pants. The chants in this video were written by @maureenjohnson, @JayOrDan23, and myself. Special thanks to guest stars Sam Raimi and my cat.From: pantslesswrockViews: 252 13 ratingsTime: 03:13 More in Nonprofits & Activism -
