You may have noticed that in the article below, I have an Amazon.com link to a book about a horse. Which, mostly I just found kind of cute, but tangentially related to the story. But, why Amazon, you ask? Well, remember that deal I mentioned a few weeks back<\/a>, well, it’s official and Amazon has reopened their affiliate program to Californians.<\/p>\n Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation Friday that postpones new sales taxes rules that would have affected online purchases in California, granting more time for traditional and online retailers to lobby Congress for a national standard on the high-stakes issue. So, you can now go back to wondering whether the Amazon tablet will be the iPad killer and getting free shipping. That being said, buying in local, independent stores is still your best choice for economic development in your own community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Internet retailer ends long stalemate with California<\/i><\/p>\n by Brian Leubitz<\/p>\n You may have noticed that in the article below, I have an Amazon.com link to a book about a horse.
